# How to rotate a video?

{% embed url="<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYQeTk6GmB4>" %}
**YouTube:** Quickstart on Raspberry Pi 4 to produce vertical video with filter.
{% endembed %}

In this video, a 16:9 video is rotated 90° using the datarhei Restreamer streaming server. In the video settings of the active channel, the encoding is changed to 9:16. There are different rotation presets available. In the example, a Raspberry Pi 4 is used, which performs the encoding via the GPU OpenMax.

{% hint style="info" %}
An encoding of the video is always necessary to get rotated video output.
