video_player on ios was killing background music playing. We have a video with no audio track on our main menu and when it plays, the background music stops. Even though someone has submitted a pull request, Google just kept asking them to update their fix to the latest version, instead of just taking the code that fixed it and adding it in.
this is the place i found the code that fixed it:
here's the pull request stuck eternally in limbo:
NOTE THIS IS FROM A YEAR AGO.
The bigger the company the slower it moves.
To use this, do this in pubspec.yaml:
video_player: # ^0.10.5+1
git:
url: git://github.com/crazedvic/plugins.git
path: packages/video_player/video_player
The original author is much ambitious than I am, making it optional and everything. Our app has no sound, so i didn't need that stuff.
