Description
A customer reported this:

Basically, Apple's Quicktime will auto rotate a video so that it will view 'in a correct orientation' even when the video was taken in landscape. Non quicktime video viewers do not do this so they will not show 'correctly'.
These Apple forum posts talk about this:

This customer is asking that we detect the orientation and flip it to be correct.
iPhone OS 4
This bit of Python does the trick:
