on pub.dev it shows it supports macOS, but does it? if so when?

Update library does support Chewie Controller. Thanks

@vikram25897 @EnderTan

Kindly update the project to support dart's null safety feature?

I tried to build apk from android studio. But, I failed, it show error related with android V2. Please update to fix this issue.

Is there a way I can combine this package with chewie 0.12.0 ?

Hello, I meet a question as below. I try to update the 'ext.kotlin_version' as the latest-version but it failed.

I have tried to delete cached video but i cannot find the method or function for this. I have asked in stack overflow and have gotten 0 suggestions.
Any suggestions will be appreciated thank you

Is there a way to add the mute and unmute function without stopping the video and restarting it?

First of all, appreciate for your effort!

I am wondering is it working right in my app.
I am using pageview.builder and there are several short videos in each page.
However, I cannot feel the difference between using original video_player and this package.

I thought, video which I watched should be cached, so even if swiped to another page the videos that i watched should be loaded instantly because they are cached. However, videos I watched are loading as same when I used normal video_player.

Am I thinking wrong? How can I test if videos are really cached?

Can you guys pleasee migrate this library to null safety ? i have some project that implement this library. now my client comeback again to improve the projcet but since this lib not migrated yet, i cannot continue the project. Thanks

please update to plugin v2

My project use video_player , it can play normally , but it can not play when use cache_video_play and throw an exception . this is error info.

[VERBOSE-2:ui_dart_state.cc(199)] Unhandled Exception: PlatformException(VideoError, Failed to load video: 网络连接已中断。, null, null)

And this is logs.

I'd like to disable the caching for individual videos like this:

CachedVideoPlayerController.network(
  url,
  useCache: false,
);

This would also be a workaround for:

• #2

I tried to use this in a macOS Flutter app, but when it tried to run "pod install" the following error popped up:

$ pod install
Analyzing dependencies
[!] No podspec found for `cached_video_player` in `Flutter/ephemeral/.symlinks/plugins/cached_video_player/macos`

I have this in my pubspec.yaml:

environment:
  sdk: ">=2.2.2 <3.0.0"

dependencies:
  flutter:
    sdk: flutter
  cached_video_player: ^1.0.3

None of the videos load in any screen. Restarting the app fixes the issue.
This issue is not permanent. It pops up every now and then after using the app for some time.

I want to add a download options so I am thinking of copying the file from cache.Can you please tell me how to copy or how to get the cache path.

when i play a video works fine.But when i play a video in pageview and scroll down to other video it mix the audio with my upper video is their any focus methord.

1 How to get the download progress ?
2 Can I delete the Android or iOS cache and how to do it
3. For example, I loaded a network video, the first time DataSourceType.network I think it is correct

Then I restarted the app and printed DataSourceTyp == network again. I think it should be file
Because the second startup video has been downloaded, it should be taken from the cache, I don't know if it's right

Hi, thanks for a great player, I have below query

Is there a way to preload next videos.

Thank you for your best effort!

I am facing the following problem:
Both iOS and Android. No caching.

Thank you in advance.

I think this package not migrated to null safety so facing problems when it will migrated to null safety

If the video is too long or too big, there will be no sound when playing the video in Android

The old version 1.03 is good, but there is a fatal problem after upgrading the new version 2.2. The app exits after opening. The cache of 2.0.0-dev.1 doesn't work at all. It will be downloaded repeatedly, and others feedback that the cache is invalid. My pubspec.yaml does not contain the official video player, but I found that the official inventory lies in the external library, so I guess it is included in other plug-ins, resulting in conflicts. I can't use any version of video cache now. Please help us upgrade and resolve this fatal issue. Thank you for your hard work

Adding a preCache to this package will help to avoid caching the whole video. Take for instance social media apps that has a lot of videos to be played and caching all these videos will affect the memory and performance of the app and device.

preCache will help to just cache only amount of video time like preCaching for 10 secs as video download.

is the any max age or time limit on the cache where the video are stored?

I think you need to update this pluging. Please Update

The plugin cached_video_player uses a deprecated version of the Android embedding. To avoid unexpected runtime failures or future build failures, try to see if this plugin supports the Android V2 embedding. Otherwise, consider removing it since a future release of Flutter will remove these deprecated APIs. If you are a plugin author, take a look at the docs for migrating the plugin to the V2 embedding: https://flutter.dev/go/android-plugin-migration.

I tried the normal video player and the cached video player and there's no difference between them at all, video still download everytime especially when autoloop is set to true.
Please I need a fix on this

With the new flutter version 2.5.0 i am getting this after running flutter pub get:

Running "flutter pub get" in hyll-mobile... 4.9s
The plugins cached_video_playerk use a deprecated version of the Android embedding.

What do you mean by the max file size? You mean the maximum size of the file that can be cached? if the file size is greater than 100MB will I still be able to play the video?
Thank you

Im Getting this error when try to run flutter build apk

Exception:

*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception ‘NSInternalInconsistencyException’, reason: ‘Duplicate plugin key: FLTVideoPlayerPlugin’
terminating with uncaught exception of type NSException

Package Version: 2.0.0-dev.1

I was initially using 1.0.3 but that suddenly started throwing class not found exception for ExoPlayer.

Its taking too much time while loading video 1st time , how we can improve it?

Seems the official plugin this fix this issue: pause and resuming native android background music i.e Stop mixing audio from 3rd party video/music players when a video is played.

flutter/plugins#1755
could we do the same?

I used this package before the cached_video_player: ^1.0.3 version it was working fine but in my null safety project I have tried a new beta version 2.0.0-dev.1 but it's the same as like video player, not caching any video, its downloading again and again. I have tried on the released version but it's not working, can somebody help me out? @vikram25897

Is it possible to check whether the video has been loaded from cache or not?

Can't use this package with Flutter 2.2. Version solving issues with other packages. Please upgrade

I need a video file for providing a download option for the user.

I have installed the package on my pubspec.yaml file but I'm having trouble importing the cached_video_player.dart file.

Here's a screenshot:

Hi everyone, if you are migrating to the pre-release, make sure you change all your instances of CachedVideoPlayerController to just VideoPlayerController. They renamed it. Opening this issue until they write a short migration guide into the new README so other people can figure it out easily.

Easy to do:

Is there a way I can use the package with chewie

how can I use this on web and mobile
it dose not initial on web.
is that any solution for play on web?

Please migrate this package to support null safety as is the new direction of the flutter ecosystem

Thanks!
Jason

need to implement functionality to clear the cache programmatically.
