How to play video in only landscape mode in android

Here I am developing an application which plays video in only landscape mode. I set my activity orientation to "landscape" in AndroidManifest.xml file, and my video is playing very nice but problem is that I hold my device in Landscape mode, when I rotate my device to 180 angle my video playing is upside down (bottom to top). It is not chaging according to that.

you can do from manifest file like this:

<activity android:name=".Video" android:screenOrientation="userLandscape">

If you are developing for android 2.2 and below you will have to rotate your content view canvas. Here are two similar questions that suggest something like that..
