Hi all,
I'm facing this issue with videos taken with my home smartphones (IPhone 6s and Nexus 5X). Both smartphones use MPEG (Mov and Mp4) EXIF metadata to declare video orientation (TAG "Rotation"), rather than rotating video itself... VLC, Plex and other media players play this videos just fine, but MP doesn't.... Here you have a extract of the metadata inside a vertical video taken with IPhone 6s:
There you can see the TAG "Rotation", set to 90 degrees.
Videos taken with Nexus 5X are even worse, because for manufacturing matters, sensor inside Nexus 5X had to be upside-down... so all videos taken with right hand (in landscape, which are 99% of them in my case) are tagged with Rotation = 180... And I can't see any of them correctly inside MP.
What I can't say is if it's a player fault (so MP problem) or it's a Directshow Splitter Filter fault (which in my case would be a LAV Splitter Source problem)
bye!
