Video Player / YouTube Player Not Working – Even Custom Widgets Don't Help

Widgets & Design

Hello everyone,

I've explored every possible solution to play videos in my app, whether from a network source or YouTube, but unfortunately, nothing seems to work. The lack of clear documentation and proper explanations on this topic within the FlutterFlow community has been quite disappointing.

I initially planned to use FlutterFlow as the primary stack for my full-time project. However, after encountering this issue, I am now reconsidering my decision.

What have you tried so far?

I've explored every possible solution to play videos in my app, whether from a network source or YouTube, but unfortunately, nothing seems to work. The lack of clear documentation and proper explanations on this topic within the FlutterFlow community has been quite disappointing.

I also tried using Chewie and Better Player, but neither provided a reliable solution. Even after attempting to integrate a custom widget, the results were the same—no success. Despite spending countless hours troubleshooting and testing different approaches, I feel like I’ve only been wasting my valuable time.

I had initially planned to use FlutterFlow as the primary stack for my full-time project. However, after encountering this persistent issue and the lack of adequate support, I am now seriously reconsidering my choice. It’s frustrating to hit a roadblock on such a fundamental feature without any proper guidance or solutions from the community.
