Hello.

android =
{
versionCode = “3”
},
orientation =
{
default = “landscapeRight”,
},
}
main.lua:

display.setStatusBar( display.HiddenStatusBar )
local onComplete = function(event)
print( “video session ended” )
end
media.playVideo( “video1.mp4”, true, onComplete )

There is presently a known issue on Android with orientation that could be what you are seeing. We expect this issue to be resolved with the next release. What version of Corona are you using?

I’m using Corona SDK game edition version 2010.109 and iPod Touch4 and iPad (iOS 4.2.1).

I’ve updated the build.settings, but still no luck. Video playback UI still go portrait.

settings =
{
android =
{
versionCode = “3”
},
orientation =
{
default = “landscapeRight”,
supported =
{
“landscapeLeft”, “landscapeRight”
},

},
}

In our testing of the new release (#243) we found that video still shows up in portrait mode on Android devices. I’ve filed new bug report and hope to have a fix soon.

How about iOS devices?

I have no luck to lock the video UI in landscape mode. [import]uid: 11208 topic_id: 3677 reply_id: 13474[/import]
