I made an avi movie with my new digital camera, but it's sideways. Is
there a free utility that'll rotate it 90 degrees for me?
The quick fix would be to use mplayer to apply rotation while watching
the movie.
$ mplayer -vf rotate my-sideways-movie.avi
rotate can take an argument to force a particular direction of
rotation, so you could do something like this:
$ mplayer -vf rotate=3 my-sideways-movie.avi
You can do other fun things like flip the image:
$ mplayer -vf flip my-sideways-movie.avi
Pretty much everything you need to know about mplayer is in the man
page, but it's really, really long. The quick shortcut for filters is:
$ mplayer -vf help
To create a file that permanently has the image rotated you can use
mencoder, which is part of the mplayer bundle of programs
<http://www.mplayerhq.hu>. Using it can be a little tricky, but should
give you decent results.
