# video_player_platform_interface

A common platform interface for the [`video_player`][1] plugin.

This interface allows platform-specific implementations of the `video_player`
plugin, as well as the plugin itself, to ensure they are supporting the
same interface.

# Usage

To implement a new platform-specific implementation of `video_player`, extend
[`VideoPlayerPlatform`][2] with an implementation that performs the
platform-specific behavior, and when you register your plugin, set the default
`VideoPlayerPlatform` by calling
`VideoPlayerPlatform.instance = MyPlatformVideoPlayer()`.

# Note on breaking changes

Strongly prefer non-breaking changes (such as adding a method to the interface)
over breaking changes for this package.

See https://flutter.dev/go/platform-interface-breaking-changes for a discussion
on why a less-clean interface is preferable to a breaking change.

## Changelog
## 6.9.0

* Adds `backBufferDurationMs` to `VideoPlayerOptions` to support configuring the back buffer duration.

## 6.8.0

* Adds `preventsDisplaySleepDuringVideoPlayback` to `VideoPlayerOptions` and
  `setPreventsDisplaySleepDuringVideoPlayback` to `VideoPlayerPlatform`. The
  default implementation is a no-op so platforms that do not support
  controlling display sleep silently fall back to their default behavior.
* Updates minimum supported SDK version to Flutter 3.38/Dart 3.10.

## 6.7.0

* Adds `VideoTrack` class and `getVideoTracks()`, `selectVideoTrack()`, `isVideoTrackSupportAvailable()` methods for video track (quality) selection.
* Updates minimum supported SDK version to Flutter 3.35/Dart 3.9.

## 6.6.0

* Adds `VideoAudioTrack` class and `getAudioTracks()`, `selectAudioTrack()`, `isAudioTrackSupportAvailable()` methods for audio track management.

## 6.5.0

* Adds a `setAllowBackgroundPlayback` method to dynamically control background playback.
* Updates minimum supported SDK version to Flutter 3.29/Dart 3.7.

## 6.4.0

* Adds HTML5 video poster support as a VideoPlayerWebOptions.
* Updates minimum supported SDK version to Flutter 3.27/Dart 3.6.

## 6.3.0

* Adds support for platform views as an optional way of displaying a video.
* Updates minimum supported SDK version to Flutter 3.22/Dart 3.4.

## 6.2.3

* Updates minimum supported SDK version to Flutter 3.19/Dart 3.3.
* Clarified that `VideoEventType.initialized` cannot be sent more than once.

## 6.2.2

* Updates minimum required plugin_platform_interface version to 2.1.7.
* Updates minimum supported SDK version to Flutter 3.10/Dart 3.0.

## 6.2.1

* Adds pub topics to package metadata.
* Updates minimum supported SDK version to Flutter 3.7/Dart 2.19.

## 6.2.0

  the underlying video player.

* Updates minimum Flutter version to 3.0.

## 6.0.1

* Fixes comment describing file URI construction.

## 6.0.0

* **BREAKING CHANGE**: Removes `MethodChannelVideoPlayer`. The default
  implementation is now only a placeholder with no functionality;
  implementations of `video_player` must include their own `VideoPlayerPlatform`
  Dart implementation.
* Updates minimum Flutter version to 2.10.
* Fixes violations of new analysis option use_named_constants.

## 5.1.4

## 5.1.0

* Adds `allowBackgroundPlayback` to `VideoPlayerOptions`.

## 5.0.2

* Adds the Pigeon definitions used to create the method channel implementation.
* Internal code cleanup for stricter analysis options.

## 5.0.1

* Update to use the `verify` method introduced in platform_plugin_interface 2.1.0.

## 5.0.0

* **BREAKING CHANGES**:
  * Updates to extending `PlatformInterface`. Removes `isMock`, in favor of the
    now-standard `MockPlatformInterfaceMixin`.
  * Removes test.dart from the public interface. Tests in other packages should
    mock `VideoPlatformInterface` rather than the method channel.

## 4.1.0

* Add `httpHeaders` to `DataSource`

## 4.0.0
