Usage #
The following section contains usage information that goes beyond what is included in the
documentation in order to give a more elaborate overview of the API.
This is not complete as of now. You can contribute to this section by opening a pull request.
Playback speed #
You can set the playback speed on your _controller (instance of VideoPlayerController) by
calling _controller.setPlaybackSpeed. setPlaybackSpeed takes a double speed value indicating
the rate of playback for your video.
For example, when given a value of 2.0, your video will play at 2x the regular playback speed
and so on.
Furthermore, see the example app for an example playback speed implementation.
