Rotate and flip videoin one instruction
The phone recorded it sideways, or the front camera mirrored the text on your shirt. Ninety degrees, one-eighty, or a horizontal flip — done locally, on video or images.
How to use the video rotator in three steps
Sideways footage is the most common recoverable mistake in video, and mirrored selfie-camera text is a close second. Both are one operation. The only reason they're annoying is that most tools want you to upload the file first — which Shorz doesn't, because it's already on your machine.
Rotate it upright
90, 180 or 270 degrees clockwise. Shorz writes a corrected copy and leaves the original file untouched in case you picked the wrong direction.
90° · 180° · 270°
Or flip it
Horizontal for the mirrored front-camera look, vertical when a clip is upside down, or both at once. Same tool, same instant result.
Horizontal · vertical · both
Carry on editing
Once it's the right way up, run it through the rest of the pipeline — reframe it, caption it, grade it and publish it without ever leaving the app.
Fix, then finish
Find it in the app under MCP single-file tool.
Why Video Rotator in Shorz
Mirrored text, un-mirrored
Front-facing cameras flip the image, so any text in shot reads backwards. A horizontal flip fixes it in one pass — worth checking before you publish a video with a logo or a whiteboard in frame.
Fix selfie-cam mirroring
Batch the whole folder
One sideways clip is a nuisance; forty of them is a lost afternoon. Ask your AI assistant to rotate every file in a folder and Shorz works through them without you watching.

Video Rotator questions
90, 180 and 270 degrees clockwise, plus horizontal, vertical and combined flips. The same tool works on images as well as video.
Rotation writes a new file, so there's one re-encode. The original is never modified, so you always still have the untouched source.
Yes — a horizontal flip corrects it. Worth doing before publishing anything with a logo, a whiteboard or writing in shot.
No. It runs locally on your own machine, on files of any size.
