Research direction

The issue describes incorrect output orientation after switching to the back camera, but names no files or tests. Start by tracing where camera selection and video orientation are handled, then reproduce the problem by switching cameras and rotating the device. Done means the back camera output displays with the correct orientation across device orientations.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
