The steps:  
First Situation

1st. Broadcast in the device in landscaped mode and orientation is locked  
2nd. The player shows in portrait mode not in landscaped mode

Second Situation

1st. Broadcast in the device in landscaped mode and orientation is unlocked

2nd. The player shows in landscaped mode but if i turn my device into portrait mode the player will also in portrait mode.

So what i want is in the first situation i want to broadcast into landscaped mode and orientation is locked and the player will output the landscaped mode only eventhough i will turn my device into portrait mode
