Reproduction steps

1. Play sample file
2. Notice how it's not rotated correctly
3. Open sample file in gwenview (or look at the generated thumbnail from KDE's thumbnailer)
4. Note how it is correctly rotated -90 degrees there

Expected behavior

mpv shows the video in the proper rotation

Actual behavior

mpv shows the video rotated 90 degree clockwise

The rotation matrix is set to

0 1
-1 0
0 0

so it's missing the tx value. Anyway it looks like a 90° rotation matrix to me.

for what its worth, I have

and it played a rotated video from opencamera just fine. This is the ffprobe of that file:

Old one but does anyone know if this is still an issue (do we support this stuff yet? I don't remember).
