Media player: Movie stop when turning device

Fix for bug #788

[przybylski]

This is not a correct way to handle this. Fixing this requires more sophisticated solution deep inside FileActivity

[davivel]

As @przybylski , this is not the way. Including android:configChanges in AndroidManifest.xml is not enough to handle correctly configuration changes, and will have a lot of side effects leading to wrong behaviours in rotations.

What you try to do needs overriding also the method onConfigurationChanged(...) in the affected activities (see http://developer.android.com/intl/es/guide/topics/resources/runtime-changes.html).

Even in that case, that could not be the best strategy for our app, since there is already a lot of code in place to handle state in rotations taking into account that android:configChanges is not included.

Sorry, but this can't go in.
