Videos upside down

[doubleteapot]

There is the odd video that is imported upside down even though it shows up the right way in Google photos. I wonder if it is when I hold my phone upside down from the normal way to record the video but my phone automatically flips the video 180 degrees?? From memory I tried rotating the video and saving a new copy last time this happened, but it stayed upside down once imported.

Yes it definitely still stays upside down when I rotate and save as a new video. I tried it in both the Google photos editor and the standard Android video viewer/editor. No matter which way up I rotate the video before saving, it still appears in the original filming orientation eg upside down

I have this same issue, even when rotating the video a few degrees and saving as a new clip. The video is just upside down. Pixel 7 for reference.

This happened to me again. I definitely held my camera up the opposite way to what I normally do this time, so that is definitely the cause. And I gather most apps would be able to flip the video 180 degrees automatically, but this app doesn't so it uses the meta data which says the video is upside down?

Is the upside down issue maybe also related to issue #73?
Maybe it's really just the visualisation in both cases?

But Flutter generally seem to have some bug potentials there.
So there was this unsolved issue about "Landscape videos are displayed upside down" and also "Videos recorded with an orientation of 180° (landscapeRight) are reversed" and funnily enough also "[video_player] The video is upside down when it is recorded at landscape left".

While the preview is still upside down, the saved clip is correctly flipped.
