[Ezaldeen99]

Steps to Reproduce

1. play any live video using flutter video player
2. in case of any behind window exception happened due to poor internet the player will be stopped

Expected results:

According to exoplayer official documentations BehindLiveWindowException, this should be a special case and the player need to be prepared again

official docs

*Actual results:

the current implementation is considering it as a general exception, and this maybe will lead to a bad user experience

The current implementation

         @Override
          public void onPlaybackStateChanged(final int playbackState) {
            if (playbackState == Player.STATE_BUFFERING) {
              setBuffering(true);
              sendBufferingUpdate();
            } else if (playbackState == Player.STATE_READY) {
              if (!isInitialized) {
                isInitialized = true;
                sendInitialized();
              }
            } else if (playbackState == Player.STATE_ENDED) {
              Map<String, Object> event = new HashMap<>();
              event.put("event", "completed");
              eventSink.success(event);
            }

            if (playbackState != Player.STATE_BUFFERING) {
              setBuffering(false);
            }
          }

          @Override
          public void onPlayerError(final ExoPlaybackException error) {
            setBuffering(false);
            if (eventSink != null) {
              eventSink.error("VideoError", "Video player had error " + error, null);
            }
          }
        });
