Part3. Why are so many YouTube videos and Dailymotion videos reversed?

You might come across videos on YouTube and Dailymotion that are reversed or flipped either vertically or horizontally. There can be one of the many reasons why this happens. For example, when channel owners want to publish something that might come under the scrutiny of YouTube’s or Dailymotion’s copyright laws, they flip or reverse the video to prevent copyright strikes.

In some cases, video makers record videos by putting the camera in an unusual mode and upload it as it is without making the adjustments in the editing phase. Resultantly, the video appears to be reversed or flipped.

It’s easy to flip video using DemoCreator, which is primarily a screen recorder application but also offers a variety of video editing tools.

Part4. How to flip a video on Dailymotion with DemoCreator?

Before you upload your videos on Dailymotion, you may need to flip video so your viewers can have a good viewing experience.

Here’s a step by step guide to let you know how to flip video with DemoCreator:

3-Step Tutorial for Mirroring Images/Videos with DemoCreator

Before starting, please download the Wondershare DemoCreator, considering the compatibility of your PC, and then follow the steps below.

1.  Import the Video and Add it To Timeline

After launching the Wondershare DemoCreator on your PC, a small window will appear. Click on ‘New Recording’ or ‘Video Editor’ to import and edit a pre-recorded video.

Clicking on the Video Editor will open a new window. Go to the File tab and select Import a Media File. Browse and select a file from your PC and click Open. The file will appear in the Project file area; drag and drop it on your timeline to edit.

Note that the DemoCreator supports a broad range of video and audio formats like MOV, MP4, AVI, WMV, DV, avchd (MTS, M2TS). And still image files like JPG, BMP, JPEG, PNG. TIFF.

2. Apply The Mirror Effect

The next step is to apply the effect. Go to the tools tab on the left side of the screen and search for the Effects option. It will open some of the editing effects available in DemoCreator. Choose Mirror Effect and drag and drop it over the video in the timeline.

Once the effect is applied, a settings menu will open in the properties window on the right side of the screen. If you want to review the video without the mirror effect, deactivate the mirror action button. The settings also allow you to flip the video horizontally or vertically. By default, the video is flipped horizontally; however, you can click on Vertically to change the orientation anytime.  Play the video to preview the settings in real-time.

3. Save and Export the Video

After you are done with all the edits, it’s time to save and export the video to the desired location. Go to the Export tab on the top of the screen and select Create Video. A window will appear on the screen. Here, choose a file format, add a name for the project, browse a location for the file, select a video quality option and click Export. The video will be saved to your chosen location locally on the computer.

Part5. DemoCreator Video Editing Features:

With the Wondershare DemoCreator, you can stir up your creativity and do much more than just add mirror and flip effects to your video. Here are some of the most used features of DemoCreator that make it a top-of-the-line video editing software.

1. Trim Video

Many video editors often lack an important tool: the video trimmer. However, with DemoCreator, you wouldn’t have to worry about it. The tool allows you to trim the videos short and create short clips from hour-long videos. Trimming helps in removing the unnecessary parts of a video and makes them more concise and contextual.

2. Rotate Video

Often while filming videos, people forget to consider the orientation of their phone, which as a result also affects the direction of the video. DemoCreator’s rotate feature helps correct the video orientation so you can watch it without turning the head sideways.

3. Crop Video 

Cropping is one of the handiest yet most underrated features of video/photo editing. Usually, the video editors accommodate by providing the trimming feature but forget to introduce the cropper. While the trimmer cuts the video short, the cropper helps in cropping out a specific screen area. Use the video cropper in DemoCreator to resize your images/videos to focus on a specific part of the screen.

4. Split Video

Split Video is another incredible feature offered by DemoCreator that allows users to split their videos into two or more parts. This feature is especially very useful when you want to add different effects to different video parts. Besides, dividing the video into parts makes it more manageable.

5. Output Formats, Resolutions, and Frame Rates

In terms of compatibility, DemoCreator is indeed one of the best choices. The software is compatible with a broad range of file formats that allows you to work with different types of videos, audio, and pictures. Besides, exporting the DemoCreator also allows you to select a resolution for a better output. With excellent frame rates, high resolution, and desired format, the DemoCreator seems too good to be true- isn’t it?
