Fix the recording here

Start with the automatic option. If the preview is still wrong, choose the physical rotation that matches your footage.

The first run loads a local processing engine of about 31 MB. Keep this tab open. Large and long videos may work better in the desktop version.

How it works

Three deliberate steps. No mysterious upload queue.

Choose and preview

Select the video from your device. The preview helps you decide whether the displayed picture is already correct or still needs a clockwise, counter-clockwise or 180-degree turn.

Set the output

Keep source dimensions for the lightest conversion, or select 480p, 720p or 1080p. Choose frame rate, target bitrate and whether to preserve the original audio.

Process and verify

The FFmpeg engine runs inside the page and creates an MP4. Download it, play several parts, and keep your original until the result is safely verified.

Built for real phone recordings

More than a rotate button

The original desktop utility was built after a recorder saved correct landscape frames with the wrong -90° display instruction. The web version keeps that practical focus.

Normalize orientation

Flatten the way the browser displays the recording into fresh frames, or apply a specific physical rotation when the pixels themselves are sideways.

Protect the aspect ratio

Resolution presets scale the picture proportionally and add padding when necessary instead of stretching people, gameplay or text.

Control file size

Set a target bitrate and see a conservative estimate before starting. Higher numbers can preserve motion, but cannot invent missing detail.

Match useful frame rates

Keep source FPS or choose a standard rate from 15 through 60 FPS. Raising FPS does not create motion that was never captured.

Keep or remove audio

Preserve the source audio or mute the entire output. Audio that was never recorded cannot be restored by changing video settings.

Private by architecture

The file is read into browser memory, processed locally and offered as a local download. It is not posted to the website server.

Choose the right workflow

Browser convenience, with honest limits

The web tool is excellent for short and medium recordings. A desktop FFmpeg workflow remains the safer choice for multi-gigabyte files, long sessions, batch processing and hardware-accelerated exports.

Frequently asked questions

What the fixer can - and cannot - do

Is my video uploaded anywhere?

No. The selected file is processed inside your browser. WordPress receives normal page requests, but the video file itself is not submitted to this website or a cloud conversion API.

Why does a phone video appear sideways?

Either the frame pixels are stored sideways, or the file contains a rotation/display-matrix instruction that a player interprets incorrectly. The preview and explicit rotation options help you correct either case.

Why does the first conversion take longer to start?

The page loads the local FFmpeg WebAssembly engine, which is about 31 MB, before processing. It is then cached by the browser where normal cache rules allow.

Can this remove copyrighted music but keep game sound?

Not when both are mixed into the same audio track. Muting removes all sound. Specialist source separation can sometimes reduce music, but results vary and may leave artifacts.

Can it recover audio that my recorder missed?

No. If the microphone or internal audio was not captured, changing video metadata cannot reconstruct it. You would need to add a new voice-over or other replacement audio.

Why might a large video fail?

The browser may need memory for the source, processing workspace and finished output simultaneously. Very long or multi-gigabyte files are better handled with the desktop application or a native FFmpeg command.

Does changing 720p footage to 1080p improve detail?

No. Upscaling can create a standard 1080p frame, but it cannot reveal detail that the source did not contain. It also increases processing time and may increase file size.
