Today I went to a Christmas Tree Festival, and wanted to take photos. Realising I was photographing Christmas Tree's, I fixed my camera in the vertical plain, knowing I could rotat the photos later.

Half way round the large church I decided to make a video clip, which looked great on camera. When I downloaded everything, all the photos and video clips were on their side. Its easy to rotate a photo, but I didn't realise the video clips would only play on their side!!!.. :mfrlol: :) :ranting:

Does anyone know if its possible to rotate the video file??? :helpme:

Of course, they just happen to be really good, but I cant twist my head on its side every time I want to watch them...

My "EXPERT" opinion is surely it must be possible but maybe you need video editing software. Now you mention it there are a whole llt of sideways videos on Youtube.

Phew!!! Thanks a lot all you great people; I knew in any crisis many of you would jump in and help out. :)

My operating system is Vista so I do have Windows Movie Maker and used it many times. I'll try it out; if its a success I'll post my Vid's on my YouTube for you all to see. Watch this space...

Thank you all very much... :)

Grateful Scib's :)

A quick update.

I've rotated my video's, it only took a few minutes; thanks a lot guys, it looks like I owe you all a drink... :badmood:
