I've recorded a video on my smartphone (android-based).
I've been recording it in a landscape mode.
Then when I uploaded it on youtube - it somehow recognized the original orientation and made it to portrait mode.
I understand that I may use youtube editor feature and rotate it there - but I don't want to do that for 2 reasons:
- It is another lossy conversion
- The video in a wrong orientation is of a lower resolution - 720p, whereas the original video is 1080p.
So what I would like to know from community either:
- if it's possible to reset an orientation flag in the video (it was compressed using h264 in mkv with ffmpeg)
- or how to disable auto-rotating on youtube
?
PS: yep, I tried to google on both questions
