- Customizable video trimmer.
- Supports two types of trim viewer, fixed length and scrollable.
- Video playback control.
- Retrieving and storing video file.
Also, supports conversion to GIF.
NOTE: Versions
3.0.0and above uses the "Full" version of Flutter FFmpeg. To install the "LTS" version, use the "x.x.x-LTS" version of this package.
Following image shows the structure of the TrimViewer. It consists of the Duration on top (displaying the start, end, and scrubber time), TrimArea consisting of the thumbnails, and TrimEditor which is an overlay that let's you select a portion from the video.
The example app running on an iPhone 13 Pro device:
Add the dependency video_trimmer to your pubspec.yaml file:
For using main version of FFmpeg package:
dependencies:
video_trimmer: ^3.0.0For using LTS version of FFmpeg package:
dependencies:
video_trimmer: ^3.0.0-LTSNo additional configuration is needed for using on Android platform. You are good to go!
- Add the following keys to your Info.plist file, located in
<project root>/ios/Runner/Info.plist:<key>NSCameraUsageDescription</key> <string>Used to demonstrate image picker plugin</string> <key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key> <string>Used to capture audio for image picker plugin</string> <key>NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription</key> <string>Used to demonstrate image picker plugin</string>
This package supports both Main and LTS version of the FFmpeg implementation.

final Trimmer _trimmer = Trimmer();
await _trimmer.loadVideo(videoFile: file);Returns a string to indicate whether the saving operation was successful.
await _trimmer
.saveTrimmedVideo(startValue: _startValue, endValue: _endValue)
.then((value) {
setState(() {
_value = value;
});
});Returns the video playback state. If true then the video is playing, otherwise it is paused.
await _trimmer.videoPlaybackControl(
startValue: _startValue,
endValue: _endValue,
);You can use an advanced FFmpeg command if you require more customization. Just define your FFmpeg command using the ffmpegCommand property and set an output video format using customVideoFormat.
Refer to the Official FFmpeg Documentation for more information.
NOTE: Passing a wrong video format to the
customVideoFormatproperty may result in a crash.
// Example of defining a custom command
// This is already used for creating GIF by
// default, so you do not need to use this.
await _trimmer
.saveTrimmedVideo(
startValue: _startValue,
endValue: _endValue,
ffmpegCommand:
'-vf "fps=10,scale=480:-1:flags=lanczos,split[s0][s1];[s0]palettegen[p];[s1][p]paletteuse" -loop 0',
customVideoFormat: '.gif')
.then((value) {
setState(() {
_value = value;
});
});VideoViewer(trimmer: _trimmer)TrimViewer(
trimmer: _trimmer,
viewerHeight: 50.0,
viewerWidth: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width,
maxVideoLength: const Duration(seconds: 10),
onChangeStart: (value) => _startValue = value,
onChangeEnd: (value) => _endValue = value,
onChangePlaybackState: (value) =>
setState(() => _isPlaying = value),
)Before using this example directly in a Flutter app, don't forget to add the video_trimmer & file_picker packages to your pubspec.yaml file.
You can try out this example by replacing the entire content of main.dart file of a newly created Flutter project.

}While running on the Android platform if it gives an error that the minSdkVersion needs to be 24, or on iOS platform that the Podfile platform version should be 11, first go to pubspec.lock file and see if the version of ffmpeg_kit_flutter has -LTS suffix. This should fix all issues for iOS platform.
On Android, if you still face the same issue, try adding the following to the <project_directory>/android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml:
<manifest xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" ....... >
<uses-sdk tools:overrideLibrary="com.arthenica.ffmpegkit.flutter, com.arthenica.ffmpegkit" />
</manifest>
