Free HD Video Converter Factory - Rotate any video easily for free
DaVinci Resolve is a popular free video editing program offering many advanced features. If you have downloaded it and want to learn how to mirror or flip your video, this post shares the detailed steps to help you rotate the orientation of a video in DaVinci Resolve. To provide you with the best experience, we also share an alternative video rotator if you encounter issues when rotating video in DaVinci Resolve.
Launch DaVinci Resolve and create a new project. Then, click "File" > "Import" > "Media" to select the video you want to rotate. Drag and drop the imported video to the timeline.
Method 1. Use the Inspector Panel
Select the video on the timeline and click "Inspector" on the top-right corner of DaVinci Resolve. Under the "Transform" tab, change the "Rotation Angle" to 90 degrees to rotate your video to landscape or vertical. You can also enter other degrees to rotate the video to your desired orientation.
Method 2. Use the Transform Overlay
Right-click the video on the timeline and choose "Transform" from the drop-down menu or click the rectangular icon above the timeline to enable the "Transform" overlay. Then it will open the "Transform" section on the right side of the interface and show you all the control dots on the image. You can click the circle on the preview window and manually rotate the video by moving your mouse. Making the circle bigger can slow the rotation speed to rotate the video more precisely.
Tips. If you rotate the video from vertical to horizontal, you may notice that the rotated video doesn't fill up the whole frame. Instead of zooming into the video, which will sacrifice the video quality, you can go to the "Retime and Scaling" section under the "Inspector" to change the "Scaling" to "Crop" to crop out the black bar around the video.
Before exporting, you can play the video to check if the video is rotated to your desired orientation. Then right-click the video on the timeline and select "Render and Replace" to save the change. Click "Deliver" at the bottom of the interface, and it will show the "Render Settings" on the left side of the program. You can choose a preset or customize the export settings. Then, click "Add to Render Queue" > "Start Render" to export the video from DaVinci Resolve.
Though DaVinci Resolve is a powerful video editing program, you may still encounter some issues when using it. You may fail to import your video into DaVinci Resolve if the format or encoder of your video is not supported by the software. Moreover, like other professional video editing programs, DaVinci Resolve will demand a lot of CPU capacity to work, which may affect the computer's performance and cause crashes when editing.

Yes. DaVinci Resolve can rotate multiple videos at once. You just need to import all the videos to the timeline and select them by holding the "Shift" key. Then go to "Inspector" > "Transform" to apply the rotation.
To undo a rotation in DaVinci Resolve, right-click the video on the timeline and select "Remove Transform". Then, the rotation effect will be removed from the clip.
The possible reason may be that you forgot to render the clip after rotating the video. If you don't apply the "Render and Replace" option, then the rotation change will not be applied to the video. So, remember to right-click on the video and select "Render and Replace" to save the rotation after rotating the video.
