Step 3: Vertically Flip Video using FFmpeg

To vertically flip a video using ffmpeg, you can use the vflip filter:

ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vf "vflip" output.mp4

This will:

• Take input.mp4 as input
• Apply the vflip filter, which flips the video vertically
• Save the resulting flipped video as output.mp4

Some examples:

• Flip video right-side up if inverted:

ffmpeg -i inverted.mp4 -vf "vflip" rightsideup.mp4

Flip specific section only:

ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vf "trim=end=10,vflip[flipped];[0:v][flipped]concat" -c:a copy output.mp4
  

Flips the first 10 seconds.

So in summary, the vflip filter provides an easy way to vertically flip video using FFmpeg.
