Orientation issue with iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus

I have an iPhone application who need to run on iOS 7 and iOS 8. It's a full Portrait Application, except for the video player who is displayed thanks to a presented ViewController.

When I start the application from the landscape mode on an iPhone 6 or 6 Plus, It will cause to destroy the HomeView. All the orientation are supported in the project because of the video player (I know I can avoid the problem by removing the landscape support but my video player won't be displayed properly).

So the question is : How can I do to start my application from landscape mode without break the HomeView (so in a nice portrait mode) but at the same time still have my video player properly displayed in landscape mode ?

PS : I can't post screenshots, so when I say "destroy", just imagine the view with not well positioned and scaled elements.

  1. In Info.plist set device orientation just to Portrait

  2. In AppDelegate add -

    - (NSUInteger)application:(UIApplication *)application supportedInterfaceOrientationsForWindow:(UIWindow *)window
{
     return UIInterfaceOrientationMaskAll;
}

How the application is oriented on launch depends on the order in which the supported orientations are listed in the Info.plist file. Just make sure that Portrait comes first.

How the home view can be oriented depends on the root view controller's implementation of supportedInterfaceOrientation. Make sure that it returns UIInterfaceOrientationMaskPortrait.
