Flutter video player Android TV

I'm trying to create a video player with controls for Android TV with Flutter

The basic video_player is working: https://gist.github.com/andraskende/195e746716e5e4e978356abb09e66a37

Would like to enhance the controls:

I tried to add RawKeyboardListener to listen on a keypress on remote but then the controls are not selectable as the RawKeyboardListener takes over..

I guess when the controls are hidden I need RawKeyboardListener to bring up the controls and disable the RawKeyboardListener so the control buttons can be selected.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Andras

I faced similar kind of issue where I fixed it with below code:

void _onKey(RawKeyEvent e) {
controls();

if (e.runtimeType.toString() == 'RawKeyDownEvent') {
  switch (e.logicalKey.debugName) {
    case 'Media Play Pause':
    case 'Select':
      setState(() {
        if (_videoViewController.value.isPlaying) {
          _videoViewController.pause();
        } else {
          _videoViewController.play();
        }
      });
      break;
  }
}`

Now if you wanted to have a fast forward or back just use the RawKeyboardListener with specific case to handle it.

You can also use your D-PAD keys to perform such action.
