AVCaptureMovieFileOutput Orientation In Landscape - ios

Question

My app uses the front facing camera to record video. I have the Preview Layer successfully set up to show it in landscape right mode, which is the only way the app will run. How do I make sure the Movie output displays correctly?

Answer 1

- ( void ) captureOutput: ( AVCaptureOutput * ) captureOutput
didOutputSampleBuffer: ( CMSampleBufferRef ) sampleBuffer
fromConnection: ( AVCaptureConnection * ) connection
{
connection.videoOrientation = //ur desired mode;
}
try implementing the above delegate method
