How can it corrupt a file if it doesn't write to it? (At least that's always been my assumption about VLC--why would a player ever need to *write* to a file?)
I personally would've used Tools|Effects and Filters|Video Effects|Geomatry|Transform (that's where you have all the flip/rotate options), but that only affects playback, it wouldn't change the original file otherwise. Are you claiming it does??

No. I used VLC player to rotate the movie and save it as a new movie. Since it was not my movie, but somebody else who had the problem - a person which as mentioned is computer illiterate, don't know how to use VLC player and just wanted to watch the movie in his Windows Media Player.
But the transformed and saved file was corrupt yes! The original was of course untouched (but also not corrected)
I don't think you read my post close enough to understand the problem...

The problem is that I didn't even realize VLC could apply transformations to a file, and actually *save* the results to a new one. In that case, then yeah, it absolutely makes sense that it could produce a corrupted file.

You CAN[^]. Although I admit that it is not common knowledge.
I interpreted you post as though you thought it was I myself who just wanted to view the movie, though... And in that case it would of course suffice to rotate the output directly and not bother about the file.

Easy answer.
Do. Not. Record. Video. In. Portrait. Mode.

I completely agree (and so does Tom Bergeron btw), but I didn't record it to start with and it's a little hard to fix in retrospect... As I mentioned: The person who did it shouldn't be let near electronic devices...

Northern California, 89 F, that's 32 C for your poor Europeans suffering over there.  And its 6:30 in the evening.
Have to say that coming after the three weeks of rain, the place is looking absoloutely stunning, green, lush, verdant, a deep blue sky, with wall to wall sun. And the chilled chardonnay isn't bad either!

You beat us by a bit. We topped out today at 38C (100.4F). The winds are out of the southwest which makes it feel a whole lot hotter.
We are getting some rain recently (first in 4 months) which has brought the temperature down a bit. A week ago we were getting 39C-40C (102F-104F) during the day.

In the middle of Germany we had about 4° C at 8:30 in the morning. But at least it's sunny. 
The good thing about pessimism is, that you are always either right or pleasently surprised.

Eek, I also work in the middle of Germany on occasion. Is it really that cold still? Its was a nice summer last year though, very nice.
