Getting Started

Based on Kaltura Playkit SDK:

• Android
• IOS

The VrPlayer plugin lets you play 360° and VR videos smoothly on Android and iOS platforms, delivering an immersive viewing experience with touch and device motion controls. These types of videos, commonly referred to as immersive, 360, or spherical videos, are captured by utilizing an omnidirectional camera or multiple cameras to record the entire panoramic view simultaneously.

Usage

VrPlayer(
  x: 0,
  y: 0,
  onCreated: onViewPlayerCreated,
  width: playerWidth,
  height: playerHeight,
),

You should implement onViewPlayerCreated to receive player events.

void onViewPlayerCreated(
  VrPlayerController controller,
  VrPlayerObserver observer,
) {
  _viewPlayerController = controller;
  observer
    ..onStateChange = onReceiveState
    ..onDurationChange = onReceiveDuration
    ..onPositionChange = onChangePosition
    ..onFinishedChange = onReceiveEnded;
  _viewPlayerController.loadVideo(
    videoUrl:
        'https://cdn.bitmovin.com/content/assets/playhouse-vr/m3u8s/105560.m3u8',
  );
}
