Rotate video

You did not turn your phone 90 degrees and what's worse, VLC player plays the vertical video as horizontal.

To fix this, you can rotate it on a Linux system with the following steps:

1. Install ffmpeg from https://launchpad.net/~mc3man/+archive/ubuntu/trusty-media:

   sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:mc3man/trusty-media
   sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get install -y ffmpeg

2. Transform the video:

   # for clockwise
   ffmpeg -i in.mp4 -vf "transpose=1" out.mp4 
   # for counterclockwise
   ffmpeg -i in.mp4 -vf "transpose=2" out.mp4
