Screen Rotate Only Videos? - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Hi there
Is it possible to have screen landscape rotation on only for videos? Except for videos I don't like it to accidentally happen anywhere else but right now seems I can't isolate for videos/ YouTube only.
Any idea?

[Q] Setting gallery orientation for viewing comics :)

Does anyone know of any way to set the gallery to only display portrait, cause I use it to view comics (since it loads in real-time, as opposed to actual comic viewers), but the only bummer is that reading them while lying down causes the images to switch to landscape mode. Anyone know a work around to this? I've tried other gallery apps, but they all load slowly:/ The default gallery app is SOO good!

Video Orientation issue

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.

Nexus 4 video rotation problem

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 ?

Prevent Dailymotion App from dimming screen

Hey everyone, has anyone noticed that dailymotion (app and website) dims the screen when it's playing videos?
in the chrome website you can go out of fullscreen and move the mouse about and you get 5 more minutes of bright video but on the actual android app the moment you get out of the navigation overlay it dims again
I've been getting around this buy pumping the brightness up but i mean that's clearly not the solution. anyone have a solution?
