Native Portrait Video Support

We would like BuddyBoss to support portrait/vertical videos in their original aspect ratio when users upload them to the feed.

Currently, portrait videos are automatically fitted into a landscape format, which results in the video appearing with large empty spaces or an unsuitable thumbnail presentation. This can significantly affect the viewing experience, particularly on mobile devices where vertical video is now very common.

We would ideally like the following functionality:

• Automatically detect the original video orientation (portrait or landscape).
• Preserve the video's original aspect ratio when displayed in the feed.
• Generate thumbnails that match the video's actual orientation.
• Display portrait videos vertically without forcing them into a landscape frame.
• Ensure the same behaviour works consistently across the BuddyBoss web platform and mobile app.

This feature would be particularly valuable for platforms such as ours, where users frequently upload mobile-recorded videos in portrait format.
