The dashboard exposes landscape / portrait / landscape-flipped / portrait-flipped
and the README promises rotation, but neither player ever read the device's
orientation field - it was hardcoded landscape. Reported by a customer testing
Firestick + Samsung signage.
Rotate the CONTENT in software, not the panel: Fire TV / Android TV / Tizen are
fixed-landscape and ignore setRequestedOrientation (can't physically rotate).
- Android (MainActivity): applyOrientation() resizes rootView to the rotated
dimensions, recenters, and rotates 0/90/180/270. rootView is the shared
container for single-zone AND multi-zone, so both are covered. Driven from the
playlist-update payload.
- Tizen (app.js): CSS transform on the stage (rotate + swapped 100vh/100vw),
same four values, from the playlist payload.
Verified on an Android 16 emulator: device set to portrait -> 'Applied
orientation: portrait (rotation=90, swap=true)' and the video renders rotated.
Ports the ScreenTinker player to a Tizen TV / signage web app, speaking the
SAME /device socket.io protocol as the Android player — no server changes; a
Tizen display pairs from the same dashboard.
- app.js: device protocol client — register (pairing_code | device_id+token),
device:registered/paired/unpaired/playlist-update, 15s heartbeat, keep-awake.
Always reaches the server prompt until the display is actually paired; a
saved-but-unreachable server falls back to the prompt (no blank screen); BACK
returns to it.
- player.js: fullscreen single-zone renderer — image (duration timer), video
(play-to-end + loop), YouTube (iframe embed), widget (iframe render endpoint).
- config.xml: Tizen TV manifest; build-wgt.sh packages (signs if Tizen CLI
present, else unsigned); README covers URL-Launcher and signed-.wgt deploy.
Validated: headless protocol test vs the live server passed end-to-end
(register -> pair -> reconnect-auth -> playlist(2) -> content 200); loads +
renders in Chromium with no JS errors.
Not yet ported (fullscreen single-zone covers most signage): multi-zone, video
walls, screenshots, remote control, self-OTA. .wgt is a build artifact (gitignored).
