Webpopup and vimeo

So I’ve succefully created a local html file, that contains embed code for the vimeo universal player. I get the screenshot of the video and a play button, but its in portrait and I need it in landscape.

I realise I can’t rotate the webpopup as Corona does not treat it as a typical display object, so I figure I’ll be sneaky and use -webkit-transform:rotate(90deg); on the CSS for the HTML tag.

This works great and my html is indeed rotated, however I press the play button and the vimeo player opens in portrait mode.

So anybody managed to get a vimeo player to work in landscape mode with Corona?

I’m having to use this solution as the company I’m working for do not want to pay excessive amounts of cash to host there videos, and I can’t find anywhere that will let me link directly to an mp4 file.

Any ideas or tips please peoples? [import]uid: 50154 topic_id: 15032 reply_id: 315032[/import]

Hi.

Does setting landscape mode via build.settings help at all ? [import]uid: 84637 topic_id: 15032 reply_id: 55598[/import]

erm it might but the only page that I wish to be landscape is the video player page… [import]uid: 50154 topic_id: 15032 reply_id: 55600[/import]

Can you share your local html file? I am trying to also do this with a youtube video embed. [import]uid: 71201 topic_id: 15032 reply_id: 58008[/import]
