Lightbulb  Android XBMC Frodo Needs Screen Rotation Post: #1
Hi,

Absolutely love having the full XBMC Frodo on my Tablet & Phone.
Only issue is when watching movies etc over extended periods of time the device needs plugging in and because of the stock orientation of XBMC, the usb power slot is always on the downside of the device and so cant be propped up on that side.
Screen Rotation ability would solve this.

Thank you

I believe this is on the "to do eventually" list. One of the other XBMC team members brought up this same situation, so the devs will probably be bugged about this internally :D

You can make easy links to the XBMC wiki using double brackets around words: [[debug log]] = debug log, [[Add-on:YouTube]] = Add-on:YouTube, [[Adding videos to the library]] = Adding videos to the library, [[userdata]] = userdata, etc

That is fantastic news, I'll keep my fingers crossed this happens relatively soon as I'd really like to use XBMC on all my devices.
Thanks for the reply

Bah, I sure wish users would stop suggesting Buying apps in google play store to solve XBMC issues that should be solved by adding such code into XBMC itself.
