Any tips would be welcome, as I dot want to start downloading new software just for one movie. ??
Not a Facebook user so the only way to be sure the file plays correctly in all situations would be to re-encode the file data with the correct orientation. If you have QT 7 Pro installed on your system, then then open the file in this app, check to ensure it is playing in the correct orientation, and then export the file to settings compatible with Facebook. If the file is not playing in the correct orientation in QT 7 Pro, then change the video track visual setting to the correct orientation before export. If you don't already have QT 7 Pro installed, then use whatever converter you have installed on your system to correctly orient playback before performing the export operation. I mentioned MPEG Streamclip as one of several possible alternatives here since I'm not a Windows user and not overly familiar with what choices may be available to you. The key here is that you must both correctly orient your playing file and re-encode the data to ensure the final file plays correctly in any media player.
