Best for / not for
Best for
- Mirrored webcam captures, reversed text on screen recordings, and front-camera clips that look backwards.
- Horizontal or vertical flip corrections where the frame size should stay the same.
- Quick visual fixes before adding captions, replacing audio, or publishing.
Not for

Best use cases for flipping video
- Correct mirrored webcam, selfie, or screen-recorded footage where text and gestures appear backwards.

- Create a simple reflection-style effect for a short social clip without opening a timeline editor.

Why this flipper is different
- Exports a real flipped file instead of relying on player transforms that disappear after upload.
- Keeps the workflow focused: choose horizontal or vertical flip, preview, export.
- Local processing is useful for private webcam recordings, classes, demos, and client captures.
Task-focused FAQ
Should I use flip or rotate?
Use flip when the image is mirrored left-to-right or top-to-bottom. Use rotate when the whole video is sideways.
Will flipping change video dimensions?
No. Horizontal and vertical flips keep the same width and height.
Can flipping fix reversed text?
Yes, if the text appears mirrored because of webcam or capture settings.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between flip and rotate?
Flip mirrors the pixels along an axis (text becomes reversed). Rotate turns the whole frame 90° or 180° without mirroring. If your video came out flipped from a front camera, use Flip. If it came out sideways, use the Rotator tool.
Does flipping reduce quality?
No. The video is re-encoded at visually-lossless quality, but no upscaling or filtering is applied beyond the flip itself. The output looks identical to the input, just mirrored.
Can I flip only part of the video?
Not in this tool. Trim the section you want with the Trimmer tool first, flip it here, then merge it back using the Merger tool.
Is the audio affected?
No. Audio is stream-copied (untouched). Only the video track is transformed.
