Use camera.setDisplayOrientation() and recorder.setOrientationHint() methdos to rotate a video while capturing itself.

    camera = Camera.open();
    //Set preview with a 90° ortientation
    camera.setDisplayOrientation(90);
    camera.unlock();

    recorder = new recorder();
    recorder.setCamera(camera);
    recorder.setAudioSource(recorder.AudioSource.MIC);
    recorder.setVideoSource(recorder.VideoSource.CAMERA);
    recorder.setProfile(CamcorderProfile.get(CamcorderProfile.QUALITY_720P));
    recorder.setPreviewDisplay(mPreview.getHolder().getSurface());
    recorder.setOutputFile(getOutputMediaFile(MEDIA_TYPE_VIDEO).toString());
    
    //Rotate video by 90 degree
    recorder.setOrientationHint(90);

Nothing you just set the rotation for the videoview that's all

          videoView.setRotation(90f);

          (or)


<VideoView
    android:id="@+id/videoView1"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
    android:layout_centerVertical="true"
    android:rotation="90" />

It would display black screen as videoView inherently uses surface view. Because a SurfaceView’s content does not live in the application’s window, it cannot be transformed (moved, scaled, rotated) efficiently. – Jaydev Aug 06 '16 at 11:40
