Rotating mpg files

I have got a couple of mpg files captured in a digital camera in a portrait mode. Are there any free tools to rotate to landscape them?

Which operating system? – slhck – 2011-08-01T17:41:25.343

On Windows you can use VirtualDub

open mpg
in Video menu select filters
click Add and select rotate,
select rotation you want (left or right)
you will need to select compression for the film, since VirtualDub doesn't support saving to mpg, you can only save as avi, so basically try different settings in Video menu --> Compress
in File menu select Save as AVI to save the film

Thanks !!! The avi files are larger than the original files, but compressing them made them small. – Praveen Sripati – 2011-08-02T01:48:32.767

You can load them into Windows Live Movie Maker. They have a rotate tool.
