I need to rotate a webpage so it will appear correct on an HD TV that is mounted sideways (portrait). The android device I am using to connectto the TV does NOT support portrait mode.

So, if I am able to rotate the webview to display sideways, it would then appear properly upright when the TV set is turned on its side.

Any ideas how I can display a rotated webpage?

My first thought was to do a Webview.capturebitmap of the webpage, then display it in a rotated view using Canvas.DrawBitmapRotated, but that would limit the webpage to a static image, so I wont be able to play videos or have flashing text, which I do need.

Any ideas?
