Player class

Loads, controls and renders audio and video content represented through Sources.

The player emits events during its lifecycle. See PlayerEventHandler on how to subscribe to events. Events are divided into player events and source events, depending on if they are specific to the player or a source.

By default, a player instance does not provide any UI components. To use the default Bitmovin Player Web UI, a player instance can be attached to a PlayerView.

Methods

castStop() → Future<void>
Stops casting the current video.
castVideo() → Future<void>
Initiates casting the current video to a cast-compatible remote device. The user has to choose to which device it should be sent.
dispose() → Future<void>
Dispose the player instance when no longer needed.
emitEvent(Event event) → void
Takes an Event and emits it to the corresponding event listener.
inherited
loadSource(Source source) → Future<void>
Starts a new playback session with the provided Source.
loadSourceConfig(SourceConfig sourceConfig) → Future<void>
Starts a new playback session with a Source that is created based on the provided SourceConfig.
mute() → Future<void>
Mutes the player.
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
pause() → Future<void>
Pauses playback.
play() → Future<void>
Starts or resumes playback.
removeSubtitle(String id) → Future<void>
Removes the existing SubtitleTrack specified by id. If the track is currently active, it will be deactivated and then removed. If no SubtitleTrack with the given id exists, the call will be ignored. Using this API removes the SubtitleTrack from the availableSubtitles, use setSubtitle to disable an active SubtitleTrack.
seek(double time) → Future<void>
Seeks to the given playback time in seconds. Must not be greater than the duration of the active Source. Only applicable for VOD. For live streams, use timeShift and setTimeShift.
setSubtitle(String? id) → Future<void>
Sets the currently selected SubtitleTrack based on the provided id. Using null as id disables subtitles. A list of currently available SubtitleTracks can be retrieved via availableSubtitles.
setTimeShift(double timeShift) → Future<void>
Shifts the playback time to the given offset in seconds from the live edge. Has to be within maxTimeShift (which is a negative value) and 0. The offset can be positive and is then interpreted as a UNIX timestamp in seconds. The value has to be within the time shift window, as specified by maxTimeShift. Only applicable for live streams. For VOD, use seek.
showAirPlayTargetPicker() → Future<void>
Shows the AirPlay playback target picker.
toString() → String
A string representation of this object.
inherited
unmute() → Future<void>
Unmutes the player.

Operators

operator ==(Object other) → bool
