Changelog

Unreleased

0.7.13 - 2026-05-16

Added

• Added CI coverage for local format compatibility integration tests, with smoke coverage on Android, full coverage on macOS and Windows, and iOS build validation.

0.7.12 - 2026-05-16

Added

• Expanded local format compatibility integration coverage to MP3, AAC/M4A, FLAC, Ogg Vorbis, and Opus audio fixtures.

0.7.11 - 2026-05-16

Added

• Expanded local format compatibility integration coverage to MOV, MKV, WebM, and MPEG-TS video fixtures.

0.7.10 - 2026-05-16

Added

• Added local format compatibility integration fixtures and smoke coverage for MP4, HLS/M3U8, and external SRT subtitle loading.

0.7.9 - 2026-05-16

Fixed

• Compared VlcMediaInfo and VlcMediaTrackInfo instances by value so media metadata snapshots can be reliably compared in application code and tests.

0.7.8 - 2026-05-16

Fixed

• Compared structured VlcPlayerError.details payloads by value so equivalent Map/List details produce equal errors and matching hash codes.

0.7.7 - 2026-05-16

Changed

• Pinned Windows CI validation to the windows-2025-vs2026 runner image ahead of the GitHub-hosted Windows runner migration.

0.7.6 - 2026-05-16

Fixed

• Restored the previous source and playlist state when replacing media fails in the native player.

0.7.5 - 2026-05-16

Fixed

• Hardened media information and track description parsing so malformed native metadata payloads are ignored instead of throwing type errors.

0.7.4 - 2026-05-16

Fixed

• Hardened Dart-side platform event parsing so malformed native payload fields are ignored instead of throwing during event handling.

0.7.3 - 2026-05-16

Changed

• Updated GitHub Actions checkout steps to the Node 24 runtime generation to remove CI deprecation warnings.
• Updated Java setup and integration-test drive commands for more reliable GitHub Actions runs.
• Switched iOS integration CI to direct flutter test execution on a clean simulator to avoid Flutter Driver launch hangs.

0.7.2 - 2026-05-16

Fixed

• Preserve playlist state when a pending playlist item is replayed during platform view or texture attachment.

0.7.1 - 2026-05-16

Fixed

• Report playlist auto-advance loading failures through VlcPlayerValue.error instead of leaving them as unhandled asynchronous errors.

0.7.0 - 2026-05-16

Added

• Added package topics and third-party notices for VLC, VLCKit, MobileVLCKit, and the vendored libvlcpp headers.
• Added release metadata tests that verify pubspec, podspec, README, and changelog version alignment.

Changed

• Updated iOS and macOS podspec metadata to point at the project repository and package author.
• Replaced the example README template with plugin-specific run instructions.
• Hardened example integration tests to create native players without loading invalid media fixtures and to use VLC's dummy audio output on headless Linux CI, with Linux core coverage handled by native ctest.

Fixed

• Avoided querying native VLC playback state before a media source is attached on desktop texture players.

0.6.0 - 2026-05-16

Added

• Added VlcPlaylistLoopMode for playlist repeat behavior, including loopOne and loopAll handling for auto advance and manual navigation.

0.5.0 - 2026-05-16

Added

• Added Dart-side playlist support with setPlaylist(), next(), previous(), current playlist state, and optional auto advance on ended playback.

0.4.0 - 2026-05-16

Added

• Added VlcMediaSource and VlcPlayerController.setMedia() for loading media with HTTP headers, VLC media options, and an initial start position.

Changed

• Kept setSource() as the simple URI API and route it through the richer media source flow.

0.3.0 - 2026-05-16

Added

• Added VlcPlayerError, VlcPlayerException, and structured VlcPlayerValue.error playback errors.
• Normalized native platform error codes for Dart-facing command failures and playback error events.

0.2.0 - 2026-05-16

Added

• Added readiness, seekability, live stream detection, decoded video size, and buffering progress fields to VlcPlayerValue.
• Surfaced the new playback status fields from Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and Linux native players.

Changed

• Updated the full player example to show loading state and disable seeking for non-seekable or live streams.

0.1.0 - 2026-05-16

Changed

• Hardened controller and native player lifecycle handling when widgets are detached, replaced, or disposed during async attachment.
• Strengthened release and CI validation so Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and Linux run real plugin integration tests.

Fixed

• Rejected empty media URIs and non-finite playback speeds before they reach native VLC code.
• Returned track_not_found errors for missing iOS and macOS audio/subtitle track ids.

0.0.4 - 2026-05-16

Added

• Added Windows and Linux desktop playback support.
• Added desktop APIs for source, playback controls, seeking, volume, speed, tracks, subtitles, and media info.
• Added CI integration tests across Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and Linux.

Fixed

• Improved native player lifecycle handling for desktop texture players.

0.0.3 - 2026-05-15

0.0.2 - 2026-05-15

Added

• Added Windows support with bundled VLC runtime download.
• Added example pages for video, HLS, and full-player controls.
• Added GitHub Actions validation and pub.dev publishing workflow.
