The Web platform does not suppport dart:io
, so attempts to create a VideoPlayerController.file
will throw an UnimplementedError
.
Playing videos without prior interaction with the site might be prohibited by the browser and lead to runtime errors. See also: https://goo.gl/xX8pDD.
Different web browsers support different sets of video codecs.
Check MDN's Web video codec guide to learn more about the pros and cons of each video codec.
Visit caniuse.com: 'video format' for a breakdown of which browsers support what codecs. You can customize charts there for the users of your particular website(s).
Here's an abridged version of the data from caniuse, for a Global audience:

_controller = VideoPlayerController.network(
'https://test-streams.mux.dev/x36xhzz/x36xhzz.m3u8')
..initialize().then((_) {
// Ensure the first frame is shown after the video is initialized, even before the play button has been pressed.
setState(() {});
