Images Rotated 90 Degrees #16

All of the pictures I add are rotated 90 degrees counter clockwise. I double checked the orientation of the files on the pi and on multiple computers. They only display wrong when viewed through the BackgroundSlideshow module.

Magic Mirror uses a browser to display images. Unfortunately browsers don't know how to read the exif information (where the rotation information is stored), so they don't know that they should rotate an image. But if you are viewing the image in an application that understands the exif data, it will look correct. One thing to try is to open the image directly in a browser and see how it looks (try just dragging the file into a browser).
