In digikam 6.0.0+ preview thumbnail of a portrait video is a portrait preview and digikam player plays portrait video as a portrait video.

In the digikam 6.0.0 realease announcement it is said "In release 5.5.0 we started to use the QtAV framework to play video media in digiKam. We chose QtAV because this framework directly uses ffmpeg codecs which de facto supports all formats very well".

I recommend reading "Video Files Management as Photo" here
