Re: [H] Free video editing software which will rotate the frames?

2009-10-25 Thread Rick Glazier

I had that problem with a small Nikon camera and MOV files.

I don't think VirtualDub will do that directly,
but if you get them out of the MOV format it will.
As in - transcode them to something else as-is (like AVI),
and then work on them with the built-in filters in VirtualDub.
(You need to have the codecs below installed on your system in advance.)

MicrosoftWindowsMediaVideo9, or Xvid MPEG-4 codecs are good 
ways to compress the final output.

They are both AVI containers, and the Windows one is more compatible
most places (but harder to find)...

I'm looking for a free program that will read an MOV file and then allow 
you to rotate the frames of the image by both 90 degrees and 180 degrees.


Anyone know of anything?  This is a two shot deal, so I don't plan to 
have this need for long. I have one video that I shot with the camera on 
its side, so it needs a 90 degree rotation...I'm about to do another 
with the camera upside down, so it will need 180 degree rotate so that 
one can view it in a way that it appears normal.

All along making them grainier and grainier!


No answer here but be sure to process them w/o compression until the end because I'll 
bet they are already low-rez like my CP5700 creates and each re-compress is like 
analog video tape with generations.

Agree. And I got rid of the MOV camera because it was too
dificult to work with the videos it took...

I use Fuji and Olympus waterproof cameras now and they store in AVI,
so the single compression WHILE turning is a single step process.
They basically look the same to me, but I'm NOT into HiDef cameras
yet by a long shot... (These are little pocket cameras.)
