在方向更改中保留xml片段

Question

I am using the <fragment> tag to add a Fragment to an Activity. The fragment contains a TextureView that is playing a video. How do I keep the video playing on orientation changes?

FYI: My fragment has other stuff in it such as Service and Broadcast receiver, so I am looking for a solid engineering solution. For instance, if I use

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
  setRetainInstance(true);
}

It may cause my service to leak on orientation change.

I am reading the fragments document and am looking at answers here as well. But fragments are such complicated features that I need a bit extra help.

Answer 1

In your activity manifest

android:configChanges="orientation"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"

then override onConfigurationChanged

@Override
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) {
    super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
}

Answer 2

Have you tied this:

android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden"

or for Android 3.2 (API level 13) and newer:

android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden|screenSize"
