icar video in reverse
Posted by CPbuff on Monday, September 17, 2012 9:40 AM
Recently took a video of my layout from my new icar but because of the mirror used on the car the video is in reverse when played on the iphone or the computer... Research has said that there may be an App for that? Also they say to download it to Windows movie maker and reverse it that way? First is it backwards ? or reversed? and how do you get it to look normal with windows movie maker? It's a good video but the buildings are reversed and all signs are reversed from their normal state! Help!

 It's reversed,, because of the mirror. If you are on a Windows machine, It's actually really easy to flip in with Windows Movie Maker (or Windows Live Movie Maker - the current version). It took longer to go through and attach captions and edit out delays than to do the flipping.

 Open your file (Windows Live Movie Maker can open the .MOV files formt he iPhone directly, at least, it does on my computer - either because I have Quicktime installed or I have a bunch of other video bits installed so I can play movies - the Combined COmmunity Codec Pack is free and has support for lots of formats).  Click on Visual Effects, then click the down arrow for More.  Scroll down to Mirros and pick Mirror Horizontal. That's it. Save or publish your movie, or make additional edits.
