  • Anyone know of a quick way to rotate QuickTime movies 90 degrees clockwise?
  • My girlfriend shot a short movie .mov with my digital camera and she had it turned sideways, so you've got to turn your head to view it right. I need to rotate it 90 degrees counterclockwise.
  • I took a short video .mov with my wife's Panasonic P&S camera holding it in the portrait perspective. However, the default playback on my computer is landscape and the video's a little dark. Anybody know of a simple editor I can use to rotate and lighten this video file?
  • I was just surprising that a film with extension .mov, which is record through my digital camera in some sideways, I always, have to move head to right side for watching video.
  • I've got some .MOV videos take on an iPhone that I'd like to view within JRiver. The videos are shown in landscape mode but need to be rotated 90deg (to portrait) for viewing.
  • I have a QuickTime video clip. My problem is that while I was shooting it, I rotated my camera 90 degrees CCW, so its orientation is that of a portrait. Is there some way I could simply rotate the video clip?
