Public bug reported:
Movies made with iPods and iPhones are encoded with orientation
information, because users hold them in arbitrary positions when
recording movies (they are meant to, there is no right way to hold an
iDevice, apparently. Unless you are making a call on an iPhone 4). At
the moment I see upside-down and sideways movies sent from iPhones and
iPods.
If you hold the device on its side while recording a movie, playback
should recognise this and have gravity in the recording represented in
the most sensible representation on the display device (in most fixed
monitors I guess this is positive on the Y axis, if (0,0) is on the top
left). I.e. match gravity in the recording to gravity on playback.
