Replay - How to Rotate Video

Hi all, 
I had the same issue, and even after using the screen rotating website suggested, replay still rotated it! Grrr. 
I used the suggestion to upload it to storyline and save it as a video- this seems to have worked. I didnt even have to rotate it. :) 
I have then opened the storyline output (video) in replay and I can now edit it. 

Thanks to the community for a variety of solutions!

This happens a lot with Smartphones ... here's one of many solutions.

There are both downloadable applications and online converters available. Good luck!

Hi there, Anita. Great question!

For now, there isn't a way to rotate a video file in Replay. You'll need to use an outside tool to rotate the video before import.

Is the original video file sideways, or does it only appear that way when imported into Replay?

Hi Katie,

Thanks for your quick response.

The original video file is sideways.

I tried:

* importing video in PowerPoint

* Rotating video in PowerPoint

* Resaving video

still did not work :(

Hi Anita,

You'll want to use a video editing tool instead of a Presentation tool (like Powerpoint).

I'll leave it to the community to share their recommendations of video editing tools with you!

HI, I am having the same issue - please update when you have found a fix!

i'm switching to Camtasia for video training creation.  we are incorporating more and more video and need to be able to edit / manipulate the content quickly and smoothly.

Hi, I recently experience that same issue when I import the video to articulate storyline 2. What I notice is that my video type was .MOV, I used the windows video editor on my machine to save it as a .MP4 then reimported. This time it imported properly with the correct rotation.  

Thanks Marsha :) this was very helpful! solved the problem, and I also found some cool features within the windows video editor, as a bonus. I was able to upload the MP4 into RP and the video rotation was correct.

So I am having a similiar problem. I have imported a video that was record on a cell phone. It is MP4 format. When I open it in VLC media player it is oriented correctly, but when I import into replay it flips it on its side. I have tried to rotate on its side in VLC player and import to replay and it still is on its side. Any thoughts on how to correct this?
