Hi,

Currently there is no option to rotate a video within Wowza Streaming Engine.

I did a quick search and found the following post in the [WordPress forum](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/video-showing-sideways) which resolves the same issue using [Handbrake](http://handbrake.fr/).

I will add this as a feature request to our backlog on your behalf. Features which are added to our backlog are reviewed and considered for future versions of Wowza Streaming Engine.

At this time I can’t confirm if the feature will be approved and if so, any time-scales for it’s availability.

Thanks for the feedback.

Regards,

Jason

Hi Oleg,

This feature has not been added to the product yet but I have sent the feature request again to show the increased in popularity of the request.

Currently any manipulation of the video files must be done outside of Wowza Streaming Engine.

Regards,

Jason

Hi Team

Is there any information regarding this feature request? Is it possible to trigger video rotation on Wowza by some orientation flag?

Best regards,

Oleg

Is there any change to the video rotation in Wowza? We have an issue while recording iOS video and then playing it in Chrome (it is upside down). We would like to get Wowza to rotate while recording
