Frequently asked questions
- My phone video plays sideways. Which way should I rotate it?
- If the top of the picture is on the left, rotate 90° clockwise. If it's on the right, rotate 90° anticlockwise. If it's upside down, rotate 180°.
- Will it play the right way up everywhere?
- Yes. The picture itself is turned, not just a note in the file, so every player shows it the same way.
- Which video formats can I rotate?
- Most common formats, including MP4, MOV, MKV, WEBM and AVI. You get an MP4 back. Videos larger than 1080p are scaled down to 1080p.
