It looks like the video is currently supported on web, iOS and Android platforms only: https://pub.dev/packages/video_player

After searching all the available Flutter video players, the best on I found is https://pub.dev/packages/flutter_meedu_videoplayer which is compatible on all platforms except desktop MacOS. It's fairly easy to call and use, and covers most demands, except playing YouTube. Doesn't look too difficult to implement an adapter... There are a bunch of other vid player addons, but they're compatible with less platforms.

There is also https://pub.dev/packages/video_player_macos which is based on the official iOS plugin.

In order to get the code to run on some platforms, the plugin needs to be 120MB in size: https://github.com/zezo357/flutter_meedu_videoplayer/issues/30, and I suspect that this is will be a common problem. I'm wondering if webview #432 may solve this problem, as once you have that, then JS solutions for playing video files will be fully cross-platform and tiny in size, and flet can have a convenience sub-class of webview with the js already included.

A followup regarding the webview solution, if flet implements https://pub.dev/packages/flutter_widget_from_html_core (all platforms supported) to resolve #432, then you can implement the fwfh_chewie extension of it for video, and even though it only lists android and ios as supported, it clearly works on web: https://demo.fwfh.dev/#/video, so I suspect it will work wherever the core package does, as it doesn't say anything otherwise.

And what about desktop?

[adampiskorski]

And what about desktop?

flutter_widget_from_html_core supports MacOS, Windows and Linux, so I suspect that the video plugin does as well, although I'm not sure.

+1 building a kiosk media app, with a need for background video behind text

[hokaso]

Currently, is there just one method of using OpenCV for exhibiting videos in flets(https://github.com/ipritom/flet-demo.git)? Is anyone working on developing relevant functionalities? If there is, I'd be interested in offering my assistance.

A new Flutter library for playing video on all platforms: https://github.com/wang-bin/fvp

Any progress? Still waiting for this function

The meedu player has been discontinued and has been replaced by https://pub.dev/packages/media_kit - which could be a better option?

[FeodorFitsner]

media_kit looks great! All platforms! Video! Audio! To good to be true, huh. 🥹

Expecting soon...
