Please could you point me in the right direction?
I need a simple programme that can rotate Avi's. It would be super if this bit of software that you recommend is free!

Thanks

Hello,

The very useful free video tool "VirtualDub" can do this as well and is nice to have for many tasks that arise when working with digital video.

I can give step-by-step instructions once I am done with work.

Check it out at:

Cheers,
Tom

Hello,

The way I do is to convert them to avi then use either WMM or Virtuldub to rotate them. There is a great free program for converting quicktime to avi called "Rad Video Tools" and you can check out it's page at videohelp.com with the link below:

Cheers,
