## What this node does

**Video Rotate** turns a clip by a multiple of 90 degrees and can flip (mirror) it on either
axis. It's a real re-encode on the server (PyAV / ffmpeg), so it runs on **▶ Run** and saves
the result as a project snapshot. Input and output are `COMFYTV_VIDEO`.

## When to use it

* Fix footage shot in the wrong orientation (phone video that came in sideways).
* Convert between landscape and portrait framing by rotating 90°.
* Mirror a shot for a symmetric composition or to flip a subject's facing direction.

## Parameters

### rotate\_deg

Rotation in degrees. Range **0–270**, step **90**, default **0** — so the only valid values
are 0, 90, 180, and 270. 90 rotates a landscape clip into portrait and vice versa.

### flip\_h

Mirror the clip left-to-right (horizontal flip). Default **off**.

### flip\_v

Mirror the clip top-to-bottom (vertical flip). Default **off**.

Rotation and flips can be combined in a single pass.

## Outputs

| Output    | Type            | Meaning                                                |
| --------- | --------------- | ------------------------------------------------------ |
| **video** | `COMFYTV_VIDEO` | The rotated/flipped clip, saved as a project snapshot. |

## Tips

* Only 90° multiples are allowed; there is no arbitrary-angle rotation here.
* 90° or 270° swaps the clip's width and height (aspect ratio changes accordingly).
* With all defaults (0°, no flips) the clip is re-encoded unchanged — set at least one option
  for a visible effect.

## Bridge note

`COMFYTV_VIDEO` is a project snapshot reference, not a native ComfyUI tensor. To move
between ComfyTV and native ComfyUI nodes, insert a **Bridge** (`ComfyTV/Bridge`). See
[https://github.com/jtydhr88/ComfyTV/blob/main/docs/bridges.md](https://github.com/jtydhr88/ComfyTV/blob/main/docs/bridges.md).
