wish list: add interface for ffmpeg rotate

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I love ffmpeg for it's simplicity in converting videos. I use it myself all the 
time and recommend it to anyone who asks how to convert one of their videos. 
Great program, to everyone involved, thank you!

One problem that's becoming more and more common is people taking videos in 
portrait mode (with a phone for example, or even a normal video camera). It 
would be great to add a "rotate" feature to the encoding options. Looking at 
the ffmpeg docs this shouldn't be terribly difficult to do (I think it would be 
the "transpose" video filter, see 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3937387/rotating-videos-with-ffmpeg+ffmpeg+ro
tate).

Of course we can do this using "additional ffmpeg commands" (thank you for 
including that, btw!) but for people who aren't technical adding a "rotate 90 
degrees clockwise, 90 degrees counterclockwise, 180 degrees) would be a much 
easier solution.

Anyway, thanks again for making ffmpeg so usable! :)

I like this. I think, if Ian doesn't beat me to it, will try to implement this 
for the 1.5 release.

This should be fixed in the upcoming winff-1.5; the work was done in revision 
708 to 714.
