I want to correct the switch without the need to flip 180 while I watch, which is a little annoying. The flip happens during the video is playing so I have to have my finger on the mouse ready to click.

Hi, great way to fix the problem, but it seems I need the menu open while watching the video, then when I need to switch it 180 degrees I need to ‘then’ tick the transform box, which is already set at 180 degrees. In such a case, rotating the video by 90 degrees or 270 degrees will help fill up the entire monitors which have more width then height normally. When a video’s height is longer than the width, the screen displays black areas on the left and right.

Watching the video in style by rotating it in a certain angle.

One way to watch it normally is to rotate it by VLC. For example the person who took the video decides to rotate the camera device while taking the video.

Correcting a video that has been taken in the wrong way or angle.

The position seeker will show the progress of the conversion. If the transformation process has not started, press Play in VLC controls. If the player minimizes, bring it back up. The video will be rotated and the changes will be permanently saved in the destination file.

Hit Play to begin the transformation process.

In the Convert dialog, don’t forget to choose a Destination file and press Start.

Switch to the Audio codec tab, and choose MP3 as the Codec under Encoding parameters.

Note: Activate the Rotate video filter if the video was rotated at an angle like 59 degrees.

Activate the Video transformation filter.

In the Profile edition dialog, navigate to Video Codec > Filters tab tab.

In the Convert dialog, click on Settings next to the Profile.

Click on Add, and browse and add the current video.

From the menu bar, go to Media > Convert / Save.

If you want to make the rotation permanent, follow these instructions after the above steps: The steps that you followed above just rotated the video for playing only. You will have to come to this section to uncheck the boxes to disable rotation for playing other videos. Note: Remember that this rotation setting is saved and when you open a new video, it will still be rotated. Your video will be rotated by a certain arbitrary degree.

Rotate by Certain Angle: Check on the checkbox beside the text that says “Rotate”.

Anti-transpose is the result when your video is rotated by 90 degrees clockwise and flipped horizontally. Transpose is when your video is rotated 270 degrees clockwise and flipped horizontally.

Transpose: Click on “Transpose” and “Anti-transpose” from the same drop-down to flip as well as rotate the video.

Flip Videos: From the drop-down select on “Flip horizontally” or “Flip vertically” to flip the videos in those directions.

Those can be selected from the drop-down after you check the transform button.

Rotate by Fixed Angle: Click on transform, to rotate a video by a certain fixed and a standard number of degrees: 90, 180 and 270 degrees.

There you will find options to do the following to your video:

Check on the checkbox beside the text that says “Transform”.

Go to the sub tab of Video Effects that says “Geometry”.

From the Adjustment and Effects, go to the “Video Effects” tab.

From the VLC Media Player menu, go to Tools > Effects and Filters.

To rotate, flip or transpose videos in VLC Media Player: You will be surprised by the number of things that VLC Media Player can do with videos. Finally, videos can also be transposed or anti-transposed, which flips and rotates the videos at the same time. Besides rotating, videos can also be flipped horizontally and vertically. You can also rotate the video by arbitrary angles such as 1 degree, 27 degrees and so on. Videos can be simply rotated by clockwise 90 degrees, 180 degrees, and 270 degrees. Videos can be rotated, flipped and even transposed for different purposes. This interesting use of VLC Media Player is to rotate videos while playing them.

Now comes the time to share an interesting use of VLC Media Player. Those are some of the good uses of VLC Media Player. We know that it can convert videos or stream them from online sources. VLC Media Player can do a lot more to videos than just playing it.
