In our case we've wanted to keep using Chewie, but wanted to add caching.
We then override underlying dependency: video_player
with forked cached_video_player
renamed as video_player
.
dependency_overrides:
video_player:
git:
url: https://github.com/tomekit/flutter_cached_video_player.git
ref: master
A flutter plugin that has been forked from the official video_player package except that it supports caching in Android and iOS. Web plugin will work like official video_player i.e. without caching support.
First, add cached_video_player
as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file.
Follow the Android and iOS configuration steps of the official video_player package. This plugin won't work in Desktop.
maxFileSize
andmaxCacheSize
are hardcoded at 100MiB and 1GiB respectively in Android.
