You could do: $ mencoder silly.mov -vf rotate=2 -oac copy \ -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mjpeg -o straight.avi You should use either rotate=1 or rotate=2, depending on which way the camera was held. Note that this *won't* work with "-ovc copy" because the video stream would be copied verbatim--without rotation. If you don't want to transcode the movie, but leave it alone, and just rotate what what mplayer shows you: $ mplayer silly.mov -vf rotate=1 # or rotate=2, depending on gravity Alternatively, you could: # ln -s /usr/bin/X11/Xvfb /usr/bin/X11/X ...restart X... and $ xrandr -o left # or s/left/right/ to rotate everything you see on your X display 90 degrees one way or the other. :) _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
