Youtube Player IFrame Plus #







Flutter plugin for playing or streaming YouTube videos inline using the official iFrame Player API.
The package exposes almost all the API provided by iFrame Player API. So, it's 100% customizable.
This package adds the rel: 0 and modestbranding: 1 parameters to the player.
Note: This package only provides default youtube web player's skin. If you need Youtube Android player like player with gesture support, use youtube_player_flutter instead.
youtube_player_flutter also uses this package as dependency. (Migration Pending)
Supported Platforms:

Android
iOS
Web

Salient Features #

Inline Playback
Supports captions
No need for API Key
Supports custom controls
Retrieves video meta data
Supports Live Stream videos
Supports changing playback rate
Support for both Android and iOS
Adapts to quality as per the bandwidth
Exposes builders for building custom controls
Playlist Support (Both custom and Youtube's playlist)

For Web, Flutter's HtmlElementView.
For Android & iOS, the package uses flutter_inappwebview under-the-hood.
Since flutter_inappwebview relies on Flutter's mechanism for embedding Android and iOS views, this plugin might share some known issues tagged with the platform-views label.
Requirements #

Android: minSdkVersion 17 and add support for androidx (see AndroidX Migration)
iOS: --ios-language swift, Xcode version >= 11
Web: None

Follow the guide here for complete Android setup
Note: Although the minimum to be set is 17, the player won't play on device with API < 20 (19 if Hybrid Composition is enabled).
For API < 20 devices, you might want to forward the video to be played using YouTube app instead, using packages like url_launcher or android_intent.
Using the player
YoutubePlayerController _controller = YoutubePlayerController(
initialVideoId: 'K18cpp_-gP8',
params: YoutubePlayerParams(
playlist: ['nPt8bK2gbaU', 'gQDByCdjUXw'], // Defining custom playlist
startAt: Duration(seconds: 30),
showControls: true,
showFullscreenButton: true,
),
);

YoutubePlayerIFramePlus(
controller: _controller,
aspectRatio: 16 / 9,
),

-------------- OR --------------

YoutubePlayerControllerProvider( // Provides controller to all the widget below it.
controller: _controller,
child: YoutubePlayerIFrame(
aspectRatio: 16 / 9,
),
);

// Access the controller as: `YoutubePlayerControllerProvider.of(context)` or `controller.ytController`.

Want to customize the player? #
The package provides YoutubeValueBuilder, which can be used to create any custom controls.
For example, let's create a custom play pause button.
YoutubeValueBuilder(
controller: _controller, // This can be omitted, if using `YoutubePlayerControllerProvider`
builder: (context, value) {
return IconButton(
icon: Icon(
value.playerState == PlayerState.playing
? Icons.pause
: Icons.play_arrow,
),
onPressed: value.isReady
? () {
value.playerState == PlayerState.playing
? context.ytController.pause()
: context.ytController.play();
}
: null,
);
},
);
