doug Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 Took some video clips using my camera. Unfortunately I took a lot of them in portrait mode. I need to rotate them for viewing in landscape. I seem to remember that there was an option in Windows Movie Maker but can't remember how to do it. Please, any suggestions.

AlanHo Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 When viewing them - turn the projector or monitor through 90 degrees.So far as I am aware - You can rotate still pictures - but not video scenes from a link in Windows Movie maker.

ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 I don't use Movie Maker (or any other video software), but have you tried to look for 'rotate' in Help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andsome Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 I regularly rotate still pictures, but don't honestly know about movies. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doug Posted April 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 Yeah looked in help Pat. Really need to sort this. I'm very stupid and keep forgetting about this problem. during our launching water rocket trials yesterday the last big one failed to launch properly. Watching the clip it looks as though the parachute module fell of just before the rocket cleared the launch tower. At least thats what seems to be happening looking at the screen with my head tipped right over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
