A VideoPlaverController was used after being disposed.Once you have called dispose() on a VideoplaverController, it can no longer be used. #170

I have the same problem!

js1972 · 2019-06-29T07:32:59Z

Are you using the video player inside a list - if so - what happens is that the list disposes list items as they scroll out of view. What I am doing to get around this is to set the cacheExtent on the List.builder of CustomScrollView (depending on which one you are using) to a really large value like 10000.0. Then you can scroll up and down with heaps of items without issue.

However - if you did have hundreds of items you'll still hit an issue. For me its no problem as I limit my list to 50 items.

So I faced the same problem. I compared it with the example given and I found one very silly error that I was making. It was related to making 'super' calls in initState() and dispose().

  void initState() {
    super.initState();  //Super should be called at the very beginning of init
    _controller = VideoPlayerController.network(
      'http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/gtv-videos-bucket/sample/ForBiggerFun.mp4',
    );
    _chewieController = ChewieController(
      videoPlayerController: _controller,
      aspectRatio: 3 / 2,
      autoPlay: true,
      looping: true,
    );
  }

@override
  void dispose() {
    _controller.dispose();
    _chewieController.dispose();
    super.dispose(); //Super should be called at the very end of dispose
  }

//Let me know if this doesn't solve your issue.

try this

 Future<void> _initializePlay(int index) async {
    _controller = VideoPlayerController.asset(videoList[index]);
    _controller.addListener(_controllerListener);
    if (_controller.value.hasError) {
      print(_controller.value.errorDescription);
    }
    _chewieController = ChewieController(
      videoPlayerController: _controller,
      aspectRatio: 9 / 16,
      showControls: false,
      allowedScreenSleep: false,
    );
    _chewieController.setVolume(1.0);
    _initializeVideoPlayerFuture = _controller.initialize();
  }

// and put this code in the place you want to dispose 

 _initializeVideoPlayerFuture = null;
        _controller?.pause()?.then((_) {
          _controller.removeListener(_controllerListener);
          Future.delayed(Duration(seconds: 2));
          _controller.dispose();

VictorUvarov · 2019-07-18T18:12:31Z

in the example they have:

@override
  void dispose() {
    _videoPlayerController?.dispose();
    chewieController?.dispose();
    super.dispose();
  }

Can you please provide a non-working example?

ashcode07 · 2019-09-04T17:53:48Z

I was using a list view so i just have to add cacheExtent and it solved the problem for me

cbenhagen · 2019-12-22T16:32:50Z

Please feel free to open a new issue if you think there is something we can do in Chewie to improve this.

Make sure that you check if the widget is still mounted before you use the videoController

Adding cache extent to the list still works to this day. You're a lifesaver, @js1972!
