This is a very critical issue actually. For use cases like mine where you have a feed of many videos, the buffering must be dependent on the current position of playback, in the current state it will buffer 100% of the video which increases the data consumed by the application a lot. In regions where people do not all have WiFi connections with unlimited data available, this causes them to hit their data limits within a very short span of time and provides a very negative impression of the app. Once this happens, they may never come back. Can we do something to control the percentage of video that is buffered ahead? cc: @TahaTesser |

Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.

I'd like the ability to pause/resume buffering on
video_player, why?We've got a situation where we have multiple videos loading offscreen and we'd like video_player to buffer only enough to keep up once the user navigates to view that video. As far as I know, video_player currently buffers 100% of the video as quickly as possible which is normally appropriate but not when you have 6-12 videos buffering slightly off screen.
