GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 687078
Totem doesn't make use of orientation/rotation data in .mov files
Last modified: 2012-10-29 09:29:31 UTC
Movies captured on iphones store orientation data which allows videos recorded "upside down" or in portrait orientation to be correctly played right-side up. Totem doesn't use this data and thus movies recorded on phones may play sideways or upside down. Information on how to pull this data from the file is here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5287603/how-to-extract-orientation-information-from-mov-videos-created-on-the-iphone-usi
