How to fix 'YoutubePlayer stuck on landscapeMode after encountering network error'

Question

I have implemented YouTubePlayer.OnFullscreenListener and when playing in landscape mode and if error comes due to network or anything else, I want to exit landscape mode.

For this I use: youTubePlayer?.setFullscreen(false)

But, youtube does not exits the fullscreen mode even on call of this. And it is stuck with error screen. 'Tap to retry' doesn't work as well.

Screenshot for reference.

are you using separate activity for full screen ? – Hemant Parmar Apr 05 '19 at 12:22 — Hemant Parmar, Apr 05 '19 at 12:22

You need to change orientation back to portrait, with setting fullscreen to false.

activity.setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT);
