System Compatibility#

VideoEditor SDK for Flutter requires iOS 13+ and Android 5+ (SDK 21). Additionally, the plugin requires a Dart SDK version between 2.10.0 and 3.0.0, and a minimal Flutter SDK version of 1.20.0.

Video Formats and Compression#

On iOS, there are two supported formats, which are MP4 and MOV. The only difference between these formats is that MOV is a proprietary format by Apple. You have two options for video compression, which are H.264 or HEVC (H.265).

On Android, VideoEditor SDK supports exporting videos in MP4 (H.264) or WEBM (VP8) format.
