Thank you for this wonderful plugin contribution. Could I request a professional player AIA file? The block structure is strange.

Was about to say that :wink:

Also buy me coffee comes first before using it? It’s like it’s not free, You have to pay and get. It’s paid then​:joy:

Thank you for your feedback and kind words.

A complete professional player AIA is not included in the current download. I may prepare a basic starter/demo AIA in the future, but I cannot promise a release date yet.

For basic playback, the recommended order is:

  1. SetContainer
  2. CreatePlayer
  3. SetSource
  4. Play
  5. ReleasePlayer when the screen closes

Could you please explain which part of the block structure seems strange? A screenshot of the relevant blocks and the expected behavior would be helpful. Please remove any private URLs, tokens, cookies, or authorization headers before posting it.

Thank you both for the feedback. I understand the confusion.

Media3Player is 100% free. The item price on Buy Me a Coffee is set to $0, and no tip or card payment is required to download it. “Buy Me a Coffee” is only the name of the platform I use for the official download page.

Please open the download page, keep the amount at $0, and continue to the download. If the page requires a payment or card from you, please share a screenshot because that would be an unintended configuration issue.

Regarding the blocks: the image in the post is a complete API/block-name reference generated from the extension metadata, not a screenshot of the actual Kodular blocks. I understand that this may look unusual. After importing the AIX, the blocks appear in the normal Kodular block format.

I will consider adding clearer real-block screenshots or a basic demo project in a future update. Thank you for pointing this out.
