Switch Between Portrait and Landscape Orientation does not work if you share your screen immediately

Steps to reproduce: 2 devices (Android and Android) or Android and Windows 10

Android smartphone:

1)make a video call

you can see the your face

2)Rotate the smartphone The other person (B) can see Person A in landscape (horizontal) mode (other device)

3)Now if you - Person A - start to share your screen Person B can see the screen in landscape (horizontal) mode [Windows 10: Here crash jami-client-qt#536 (closed)]

BUT

If you make a video call and share your screen immediately and rotate the screen, Person B only sees the screen horizontal BUT in portrait mode! [same issue using Jami,Windows 10]

Example:

Device B can have Windows AND Android OS

Auto rotate works if I start call horizontally!

changed title from Switch Between Portrait and Landscape Orientation does not work to Switch Between Portrait and Landscape Orientation does not work if you share your screen immediately

No issues if you start a phone call in landscape (horizontal) mode

So this seems to be an issue regarding the android version of Jami.

@aberaud Is it possible to fix this issue together with jami-client-android#978 (closed) ?

using newest beta: as mentioned switch Between Portrait and Landscape Orientation does not work AND you get video lag (during the switch; Android: hardware acceleration OFF AND ON)

Jami (version 20220121-01)

If you return to camera (Landscape Orientation) the preview is gone / just a black bar. (Another bug: jami-client-android#1047 (closed) )

However - If you return to camera (portrait Orientation) the preview works ?

@aberaud and @Mehdighayour: Can you please priortize the fix of this issue? Together with: jami-client-android#1047 (closed)

@El4 Thanks for reporting the issue, I'll discuss it with the team. If there is any availability to develop for the next iteration,we'll work on.

Thank you!

We have an ongoing work to refactor the renderer in client-qt (Windows/Linux/Macos). This should fix the crash on Windows. We will update when it's merged. You can follow the patches here https://review.jami.net/q/topic:qvideosink. For the rotation mismatch, there is a patch that was merged on December 2021, that fixed a similar rotation issue (see commit c74375b3f8e2466e79b359f814f5f158d2eb7527 in Daemon). I don't know if you had the chance to test with this patch? If it's still there, we would have another issue then.

I am using Jami Windows 10 (NON-beta) version 202112221635. Does it contain this patch?

Yes, version 202112221635 includes this patch. So, it seems it's another issue (possibly related). As I mentioned, on our side, we will wait for the client-qt refactoring and redo the tests. We will update when ready.

And who can merge this patch? Link: https://review.jami.net/c/jami-client-android/+/21044 Because this seems to be another issue as well?

@Mehdighayour @aberaud This issue still persists can the team fix this issue?

@El4 In near future we'll fix it when it's the prority at the time. Thanks!
