Anyone?
This is a serious flaw in the way the movie part of the iPhone operates and I'm not sure owners would be aware of the implications.
Even looking through all of the 'support' for iPhone movies there is no mention of this "flaw".
Support pages (
http://www.apple.com/iphone/how-to/#camera.taking-photos-and-recording-videos) also suggest that portrait is the norm as the image of the phone taking a picture shows the phone in portrait mode.
The text copy on this page then goes on to state: "If you take a picture or record a video with iPhone rotated sideways, the picture is saved in landscape orientation." Again, suggests that landscape is not the norm as it says "if" you take it this way.
And another support page (
http://www.apple.com/iphone/how-to/#photos.viewing-photos-and-videos) says "View a photo or video in landscape orientation:
Rotate iPhone sideways. The photo or video reorients automatically and, if it’s in landscape format, expands to fit the screen." Another "if" statement suggesting that landscape is nothing special.
So why is this "flaw" not communicated to owners? I have taken a lot of important video that I thought I could save to a DVD, but now it seems that I can't. Not happy.
Is anyone at Apple listening? Please help! I desperately need a solution...
