HTML 5 video in UIWebview Orientation landscape

Question

Hi.

I have an iPhone application where every view is in portrait. I have a UIWebview with some HTML in it. Amoung that there is a html5 tagged video. When I play that video, it plays in portrait only. In order to make it work in landscape I have to return YES for shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation in the viewcontroller, but I don't want the viewcontroller to rotate to landscape. I only want the video to support landscape orientation.

It is possible?

Thanks!

Hi,

I have the same issue and I can't find any info about this anywhere. Were you able to get it to work?

Thanks!

Answer 2

Same behaviour here, anybody know a solution?

Strange thing is, I had this running already and it suddenly changed to portrait only. The whole app is forced to landscape.
