  Everytime I upload my iphone video the format turns it sideways. Example: a video shot from the passenger window of a landing plane comes out sideways.

  How do I change this?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You need to change it BEFORE uploading it to WP.com. It’s the same with static pictures. I use the tools at Picnik to rotate static images; presumably you’ve got tools to rotate the video prior to uploading.

  it’s not that WP is turning it sideways; it’s that it’s shot that way and WP has no image manipulation tools.

  rain-Not entirely correct http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/image-editing/

  But having said that, I don’t have a clue if this includes videopress (and will not be spending $60 to find out). Nothing about rotation is mentioned in this Support doc http://en.support.wordpress.com/videopress/

  @hopkinsjames What are you using to rotate the videos prior to uploading?
