controls: video orientation
You can change how the video image is displayed within the window frame.
There are keyboard controls for rotating the video, for zooming in and out, and for panning up, down, left and right1).
Each of these settings has an Up, Down and Reset keyboard control (and for panning, a Left and Right as well).
The current setting will be remembered from video to video, but won't be recorded in the MinimalistMediaPlayer.conf file, so each new instance of MMP will start with all these set to normal.
Please note that in order to rotate LEFT (anti-clockwise), you must have first rotated RIGHT (clockwise) at least once. For every Rotate Left there will have been a Rotate Right.

MMP are actually opposite to how a camera would pan but that's not intuitive when you're viewing something on your monitor - typically, when you think of “move left”, for example, you want what you're viewing to move left. In photography, to achieve this, the camera actually moves right. Confused? I got confused just trying to explain it!Page Tools
