Hi Luke, will a similar option be made available to the Android app as well?

My use case is sometimes I like to watch series on my phone in bed while I'm falling asleep, and I will be laying on my side. This means that the phone will be oriented in portrait mode, while I want the content to remain in landscape mode.

I'd like to have an option to lock videos to landscape mode (by default), since all my videos are landscape anyways. For inspiration, Plex offers the same option in their video player.

Thanks!

HI, yes the next update to the Emby android app will have the same option. Thanks.

The next update to the Emby iOS app will have a new option to control the orientation behavior during video playback.

Hi Luke, 

Is this update out? I can't see any options in the emby ios app. Videos still don't automatically go landscape full screen like plex, netflix etc. Could we get this added as an checkbox in the app?

Cheers mate.

HI, yes it is. The option is in the app's playback settings.

I didn't find this switch in the settings.

Where are you looking for it? Did you go into the app's playback settings?

I can't read that but did you go all the way to the bottom? There's one about screen orientation.

OK that's odd. We'll have to look into why it might not be showing for you. In my testing on the same version it is there.

I’m not seeing either on 2.2.12, see attached. Thanks!

Not visible here either - on two different iOS devices.

OK we'll take a look at this. Thanks for reporting.

Hi Luke,

Please dont take this the wrong way or personal. I'm only curious as to the process.

I see a lot in these posts that you state you will "look into it". What usually happens after that? Do you add it to a list or spreadsheet somewhere? Does it get created as an issue in Github?

Can I recommend the latter. When a post comes up and you agree to look into it, are you able to create a github issue where we the users, can follow it's progress.

This is a very serious problem, I hope the official attention, trapped for too long, we hope to automatically horizontal screen

Hi Luke, just a bump to this one, any luck on figuring out why the rotation setting is not appearing in Playback Settings? I saw there was a recent update to the app, but no change. Thanks!
