I have this setup where I use a magnifying
glass to make a projector for my screen. I turn the phone on its side to make videos full screen.the projected image is upside down so I flip the phone over to compromise.but when I do that, the screen flips it self so its right side up and the projected image is upside down again.is there a way to lock it on a sideways position

Turn your phone sideways and pay attention to the middle of the screen. There will be a button that pops up that says lock orientation

Or you can deselect auto rotation and manually change orientation to sideways

Either one of those options would work for you

The button I was speaking about was is on web browsing sorry boss. I don't kno any way to Do that on video player. I know seconday players like "my player" have features to lock the screen while playing. You might want to surf tghe market for something like that. You never know what you might find.

Seems like its just something so simple but just got over looked.

Ps. Some videos will not turn right side up... Hmmmm interesting.
