I'm relatively new to Android but have made quite a few apps over the past year so forgive me.I know that when you are running an app on a device and change the screen orientation by turning the device the activity that is showing is completely recreated. I go to the youtube app (I am using Nexus 7 w/ Android 4.2.2) and play some video and then flip the screen to change orientation. The video keeps playing and everything is re-sized accordingly... How is this possible if the activity is completely recreated?Thank you.
