Preload video link

[Loise]

Thanks for your awesome package.

Maybe the video player would be improve by a preload ?

When you load a video for the first time, the spinner of the loader is displayed, until the end of the duration.

If I go back to the previous story, and return to the next story, the video is loaded and correctly displayed.

I can reproduce this issue on my mobile with your sample video: https://storage.googleapis.com/coverr-main/mp4/Footboys.mp4 at each time.

Best regards, Loïse

@mohitk05, I'm also facing a similar issue, any update on this one Please?

[mohitk05]

@Loise @sdei-lovepreet This is mostly because a DOMException error while playing the video, it might be visible in you consoles, if you check. I'll add better error handling here which either tries to replay the video or skips to next story. Mostly will include this in minor updates after v2.
