Rotate Youtube videos

Jo4K

Hello all,

And thx Bugsounet for your incredible work!

I’m testing youtube extension.
My tv is in portait mode. I rotate the screen in the raspberry config and it’s working.
But videos from youtube are in landscape mode and use full screen.
I didn’t find any informations if it’s possible to rotate the video and show it not in fullscreen.

Hi, sorry but all video of YT are in landscape mode and not in portrait mode
so you can’t have it in Fullscreen or … you will have for example a person with “big leg and a slim body”

after if you use VLC maybe in preferencies of the app, i don’t know really
and if you use myYT server, normaly, the video follow the screen orientation

Actually with GA v3, you can’t read it in windows mode
in GA v4, you will have this possibility

Don’t be sorry
Thanks to you and your fantastic work.

I will try with vlc settings and if it doesn’t work, I will wait GA v4

Have a good day!

Strange. Mine is also in portrait mode and youtube works fine. I haven’t made any changes to the config. I’m using
Extented: {
useEXT: true,
youtube: {
useYoutube: true
},

  links: {

useLinks: true,
displayDelay: 60 * 1000,
scrollActivate: true,
scrollStep: 25,
scrollInterval: 1000,
scrollStart: 5000
},

  volume: {

useVolume: true,
},
cast: {
useCast: true,
},

Hi, with this config, you need a username and token. Because you don’t use vlc
(policeman and error 403 will be displayed}
