Need to rotate a video...any suggestions?

[Moesha]

I took a short video with my camera yesterday at my niece's kindergarten graduation. I turned the camera so it would be vertical and I could get her parents in the video behind her. They were having to do a crazy little dance. The problem is that now the video plays sideways and inorder to watch it, I have to turn my head to the left or flip the laptop. I wanted to burn it to a CD to give to my brother and sister-in-law. I was wondering if anyone knew of any software that could be used to rotate it.

Do you have Windows Movie Maker? Most installs of XP come with it.

If so, that link should help! If not...

That program will do it and I *believe* it's free, didn't look into it so could be wrong.

I do have Movie Maker, but it won't open the video. It's a quick time movie. I'll try that other link you listed.
Thanks!
