Hi,
Did any one know if this can be fixed in any way? It works all fine with dailybuild 971 but 980 and up doesn’t.
Any advice will help.
Thanks and happy new year. [import]uid: 27699 topic_id: 34441 reply_id: 334441[/import]
Please file a bug report with platform and version information. Also a test project unless you are finding that it fails with the StreamingVideo sample app.
Thanks,

Hi. Was this problem resolved? I’m need to be able to rotate the video playback in a project I’m working on and it seems that the video is locked to whatever orientation is set for the app is using media.playVideo().
Thanks in advance

Hi Doug,
Which build of Corona are you using? And which device(s) are you testing on?

If you’re building for iOS, add the following to build.settings under the plist area:
CoronaUseIOS6PortraitOnlyWorkaround = true,
The above flag works for all iOS versions and allows the media.playVideo to rotate.
Brilliant thank you, adding “CoronaUseIOS6PortraitOnlyWorkaround = true,” to the build.settings file worked a charm

I know this is an older thread, but I’m still having the same problem. The bulk of my app needs to run in portrait orientation, but I’d like the videos to be able to rotate to landscape when they play. I’ve tried every possible combination of orientation options in the build settings, including the one suggested in this thread, but still no luck. Also noticed that the recent Corona developed Business Sample App has the same issue. All the videos play in portrait mode only, which is sub-optimal. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
If you tap on the video in the Business sample app it should try to play full screen which will rotate with the device, so it will be full screen on landscape.

Well, not so much. No. Just tried it again to make sure. The business app plays its videos in portrait mode only, both on my simulator and my phone.
