Hi guys
I have searched and not seen this issue much and no fixes for it.
I recently shot some video with my S4, when I try and play it back the orientation is flipped. I shot the video in landscape but when I play it back, it flips it portrait so you kinda have to tilt your head to watch it.
Has anybody come across this before, better yet, anybody know how to remedy this?? It's driving me nuts.
By the way, phone is still standard, not yet even rooted.
Thanks for any suggestions...
Which application are you using to play your recorded videos?
Have you switched on auto Screen Rotation?
If i switched off Screen Rotation, the recoded videos(landscape) plays back in portrait on stock video player. You can turn the video to landscape by pressing the rotate icon on top right hand corner of the app.
If i have Screen Rotation on, the video app will automatically start in landscape mode.

I'm using the std video app, I have now turned off auto rotation and I can indeed switch to landscape. Any idea why it records in the wrong orientation in the first place, maybe auto rotation enabled is the cause??
Thanks for your help mate.
Its recorded wrong in the first place because Auto Rotation was off. Switch on auto rotation before recording.

When i watch videos on youtube while laying on my side, youtube automatically rotates the screen even when i use the lock on the notifications bar. How do i go about locking it without youtube messing with what it thinks is the right orientation?
Anyone?
Ultimate Rotation tool has the ability to change settings on an app by app basis. You could have Globally Force Rotate which will allow all screens to rotate and then go to YouTube, select App Only and set the mode to Landscape.
From that point on, when you enter YouTube, the screen will force to Landscape but everything else will still rotate (even the home screen).
NO Root needed... and it is not free, but you got $25 free bucks from Google to use for stuff like that.

There is a 7 day trial so you can see if it works for you. There may be other non-fee or lower cost apps that do the same thing as well... this just what I use.
When you are watching a video there is a toggle for landscape or portrait if you tap on the video

Hi for some reason, today its easier for me to go from landscape to portrait mode... I don't now what happen, but sensitivity changed when I'm using YouTube. I use it almost always on portrait mode, except viewing videos.. before I can lay on my side and watch videos in landscape mode, but now it changes to portrait...is it possible to change its sensitivity?
Thanks
P.s. my settings is always a lock even before sensitivity increased..

Hi
So I've noticed that when recording a video vertically and then turn it horizontally (or the other way around), in the play back it doesn't actually rotate the video and you have to rotate the screen to watch it.
Question is. Is there any way to fix the play back so u won't have to rotate the phone it self or any app to do that ?
Hey gang. I've noticed a weird issue with my YouTube app since the update. I've attached screenshots for reference. Basically when I start to play a video in portrait mode is fine, when I go to landscape mode something happens and there is an overlay over the screen with some weird icon (RSS Feed?). It makes the screen very dark in the video area. Then when I go back into portrait mode it's still there. Then subsequent videos have the overlay whether in portrait or landscape. I have to exit the app and restart it to fix it. But if I put the app into landscape it happens every time. Never had this before the 4.4 update. Completely stock with ART enabled. Thanks for any input or advice.

Figured it out. It's a known bug that affects the new YouTube app. When you turn on bluetooth even if YouTube it off this overlay appears. The only way to fix it is to turn out blue tooth and reboot.

Hey,
Doing a Nexus car mod at the present time and having issues with apps that are only designed for portrait mode being stretch into landscape mode rendering them useless.
In this example the app is ingress.
Is there a way to rotate an app into landscape mode but still keep in its portrait size so there would be black boxes on the left and right of the app?
Thanks for your help
