I have a nasty problem recording video with my samsung devices (seems to be all of them from S3 to my Note 4)

it adds a rotation tag or some sort to the video. if you start a video with an "unclear" orientation (say flat screen up point straight down) this problem becomes apparent.

or if you hold the phone upright portrait and record a video but then turn it landscape it "keeps" the video in portrait for playback (yes this includes once I upload to youtube extremely annoying)

I will record a video normally and it will be "vertical video" (portrait) instead of landscape like I am holding it.

or as with today the video was rotated 180' upside down.

Is there an app I can install that will let me strip/reset this rotation tag so all my videos playback "landscape" proper and not 90' or 180' ? ie let me "correct" the dumb meta tag rotation tag or whatever it is samsung adds to the video causing it to do this.?
