Hello, The Pool Commish!
Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities!
If I'm understanding your post correctly, you imported a video you took on your iPhone X and instead of showing the view in landscape view, its showing it as a portrait.
You can easily edit the video's orientation on your iPhone by following these steps from the iPhone User Guide section called Edit photos and videos on iPhone:
- "In Photos, tap a photo or video thumbnail to view it in full screen.
- Tap Edit, tap
, then do any of the following:
- Crop manually: Drag the rectangle corners to enclose the area you want to keep in the photo, or you can pinch the photo open or closed.
- Crop to a standard preset ratio: Tap
, then choose a ratio like Square, 2:3, 8:10, and more. - Rotate: Tap
to rotate the photo 90 degrees. - Flip: Tap
to flip the image horizontally.
Tap Done to save your edits, or if you don’t like your changes, tap Cancel, then tap Discard Changes."
I hope this information helps you!
Cheers.
