Dragged in video not playing correctly
Videos are complex, and sometimes they don't play well. Here's an easy fix
This tutorial has been updated the to latest design of Rotato
If you're trying to use a video in another app, like Rotato, and it just doesn't play right, or is acting straight up weird, it might be because of the way the file was written. You could go back to the app you used to modify or create the video in the first place, but that would take a bit of time - and you may not even be the one who made the video in the first place. Or—you could do this simple little trick with Finder in macOS.
- Find the video in Finder
- Right click and choose Services then Re-encode video
- Choose H264 and the relevant resolution (typically the highest one will get you closer to the original in most cases)
Your new video will now be saved next to the original, and it will most likely work as expected in other apps.
