Hi Guys & Gals

Firstly let me say I'm NOT a pro film editor, however recently I transfered over 50 - 8mm family cine films to digital via a Coopers 8mm cine - digital convertor [awesome bit of kit for £200] thumbup

Having joined up various reels and made 12 - approx 20min digital films of the old cine footage I now notice one segment [approx 2mins long] within one digital film is upside down and playing in reverse [people walk backwards upside down - doh !]
I'm using OBS as the digital output program. Is there a simple way in OBS to highlight the problem segment and get it to play right way up and reverse the direction in one action, without altering the rest of the 20min film??
Be gentle please with any suggestions listing the steps to do this if possible smile

I'd say obs might not be the right tool for the job - it's designed for vision mixing and live streaming, not video editing.

It might be worth trying something like davinci resolve - the basic version is free, and it definitely has the ability to rotate video
