Title:
  iPod and iPhone movies are played with incorrect orientation

Status in “gstreamer0.10” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Movies made with iPods and iPhones are encoded with orientation
  information, because users hold them in arbitrary positions when
  recording movies (they are meant to, there is no right way to hold an
  iDevice, apparently.  Unless you are making a call on an iPhone 4).
  At the moment I see upside-down and sideways movies sent from iPhones
  and iPods.

  If you hold the device on its side while recording a movie, playback
  should recognise this and have gravity in the recording represented in
  the most sensible representation on the display device (in most fixed
  monitors I guess this is positive on the Y axis, if (0,0) is on the
  top left).  I.e. match gravity in the recording to gravity on
  playback.
