Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

No current issue, just a way to enhance user experience

Describe the solution you'd like

Create a way to allow the end user to lock the orientation of the player, this will allow them to choose if they want the player in landscape or portrait mode.

Describe alternatives you've considered

The only option I found that works is to disable screen rotation in Android as a whole. Not a great user experience as there are other apps I want to be able to switch orientation.

Additional context

None
