Unable to rotate video player to landscape [#10348]

There does not seem to be any option to set the orientation of the video player. The only way to change the orientation is to turn on (or unlock) auto-rotate from the phone's settings. However, on many phones, the auto-rotate feature consumes extra power and is overly sensitive. Instead, most media playing apps default to playing videos in "wide" or landscape mode and usually offer an onscreen button or option to set the player's orientation.

Is there any way to do this in Media Monkey for Android?

Currently, I have to unlock auto-rotate, start the video, then hope that I don't inadvertently tilt my phone while watching a movie. Once the movie starts, if I turn off auto-rotate then the player resets to a verticle orientation.

This feature isn't included atm, but we'll certainly consider it.

Thanks for the feedback.
