Checklist

Feature description

It's obvious that Shorts and videos having portrait thumbnail are expected to be played on portrait player. However, if Start main player on full screen is enabled, player tends to rotate automatically regardless of types of videos. Such a hassle could be easily avoided.

Why do you want this feature?

Enabling Start main player on full screen lets you to start full screen without the need to rotate the device. However, all videos tend to get started on landscape full screen at first and this is a little disturbing.
