read video rotation

[ben80]

Hello everyone,

i once in a while use exiftool to read metadata from images.
Excellent tool, thanks a lot for providing it!

Now, i would like to read the rotation of video files.
Is this  possible with exiftool?
I tried it with ffprobe (part of ffmpeg tools) and it seems to work. But i would prefer to do it with exiftool.

Thanks  a lot
Ben

Hi Ben,

Try this:

exiftool -rotation FILE

This should work for MOV and MP4 videos.
