Flutter VLC Player with options

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_vlc_player/flutter_vlc_player.dart';
class Home extends StatefulWidget { @override _ExampleVideoState createState() => _ExampleVideoState();
}
class _ExampleVideoState extends State<Home> { final VlcPlayerController controller = new VlcPlayerController.network(url); @override Widget build(BuildContext context) { return Scaffold( body: SizedBox( height: 100, width: 40, child: new VlcPlayer( aspectRatio: 16 / 9, options : VlcPlayeroptions(), controller: controller, placeholder: Center(child: CircularProgressIndicator()), ) ) ); }
} 

this is my example where video is playing good, but i need to add options to it like play and pause, "options" is not working

i need to add play and pause button on vlc player in flutter app

Add a widget that sends play/pause through the controller class. Check out the other available methods too for the VlcPlayerController class.

ElevatedButton.icon( onPressed: () => controller.pause(), icon: const Icon(Icons.pause), label: const Text('Pause'))

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_vlc_player/flutter_vlc_player.dart';
class Home extends StatefulWidget { @override _ExampleVideoState createState() => _ExampleVideoState();
}
class _ExampleVideoState extends State<Home> { late bool _isplaying = true; final VlcPlayerController controller = VlcPlayerController.network( "url", hwAcc: HwAcc.auto, options: VlcPlayerOptions(), ); @override Widget build(BuildContext context) { return Scaffold( body: Column(children: <Widget>[ SizedBox( width: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width, height: 225, child: VlcPlayer( aspectRatio: 16 / 9, controller: controller, placeholder: const Center(child: CircularProgressIndicator()), ), ), Container( child: Row(mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center, children: [ if (_isplaying) TextButton( onPressed: () { controller.pause(); setState(() { _isplaying = false; }); }, child: const Icon( Icons.play_arrow, size: 50, ), ) else TextButton( onPressed: () { setState(() { _isplaying = true; controller.play(); }); }, child: Icon( Icons.pause, size: 50, ), ), ]), ),] ); }
}

This is how i get it work done
