How to use the Rotate Video

  2. Choose the rotation or flip.
  3. Click Rotate video.
  4. Download the corrected video.

Permanent rotation

The picture is actually rotated and re-encoded, not just tagged with rotation metadata, so it shows the right way up in every player, editor and website.

Mirroring

Front cameras often record mirrored text. "Flip horizontally" fixes it.

Good to know

The picture is rotated pixel by pixel and re-encoded with H.264 at high quality (CRF 20), and any old rotation flag is cleared so no player rotates it twice.

Frequently asked questions

Will quality drop?

Very slightly, as the video is re-encoded at high quality (CRF 20).

Do I have to pay or sign up to use the Rotate Video?

No. There is no account, no payment and no watermark. The only limit is 1 GB per file, set by what browsers can handle.

Do you keep a copy of my files?

We never receive them. All processing happens on your device, so there is nothing for us to store or delete.

Can I use it on my phone?

Yes. Open the page in your phone's browser and choose a file. Phones have less memory than computers, so very large files are better converted on a laptop or desktop.
