[Bug] [MediaElement] [Android] Android TV on Portrait mode not rotating content correctly #1964
I´m bluiding an app for an Android TV Device, that needs to reproduce video in Portrait mode. However the content is not showing propperly as it does when in Landscape. It seems that the video is not rotating according to the screen orientation defined in the MainActivity class (ScreenOrientation.Landscape), and it keeps thinking the device is always in default mode (Landscape) despite the configuration.
The issue appears to be exclusive to Android TV devices (tested in Xiaomi MiBox S), as it works as expected in cellphone Xiaomi Mi 9 SE. To clarify, Screen Orientation is fixed so there´s no device rotation involved in this issue.
