  2. Most video editors can do this, but you can do it on the iPhone, as well.

    If you do a search for rotate you will find threads like this … https://forum.videohelp.com/threads/417092-Change-rotate-video-metadata

    I have used Exiftool successfully.

  5. There are free video editors available that can rotate the video. Windows 11 has a built-n one called ClipChamp. I have not used it and there are others on the software tab of the VideoHelp site. IE: OpenShot and VideoPad

    Try AVIDemux; my rotating guide is here.

    Note: It might not work.

    If the videocodec is h264 or hevc, you can change the rotation flag without reencoding (no quality loss, fast) with clever FFmpeg-GUI.
    Load your mov, click lossless changes, check rotate clockwise, set the degrees and click rotate.
    Done.
