Hi, This issue needs work upstream and giving the low activity there I don't think there will be a patch soon. Also, according to upstream, rotation was never applied by default due to performance impact, so this is a new feature request rather than a regression. And the one time fix (that is, add vf-pre=rotate to mplayer.conf[1]) on user side is cheap enough to consider this a wishlist bug. possible future development can be followed upstream at https://trac.mplayerhq.hu/ticket/2415 Lorenzo [1] I tested this with the video provided and it works, it may not work with some other -vo, not sure. > > Gratefully, > AlMa
