About Rotate Video
Footage shot on a phone held sideways often plays rotated, because the orientation is stored as a flag some players ignore. Rotating in fixed 90-degree steps writes the correct orientation into the picture itself.
How to use it
- Select the video that is playing the wrong way up.
- Rotate it by 90°, 180° or 270°.
- Save the corrected file.
Worth knowing
Rotating by 90 or 270 degrees swaps width and height, so a landscape clip becomes portrait. That changes how it fits any player or platform you upload it to.
Common questions
- Why does my video look fine on my phone but not on my laptop?
- The phone is reading the rotation flag and the desktop player is not. Rotating the picture removes the ambiguity.
- Can I rotate by an arbitrary angle?
- No — quarter turns only, which is what orientation problems actually require.
