Created attachment 475336 [details] Left screen shows video being recorded, right screen shows the playback Device: Iphone ios version: iOS 18.4 and 18.5. I have tested this on 18.3 and it worked correctly so bug was introduced at 18.4. Description: If you use a browser to get access to your camera with javascript and record a video, the recorded video is in the wrong orientation. I have tested this on safari, chrome and firefox, the bug appears on all of them. This is an issue in a client project but am unable to share the site so have created a separate page to demonstrate issue. Steps to reproduce: 1 - Visit https://ios-video-issue.netlify.app/ on an iphone with iOS 18.4 or 18.5 2 - Keeping device in portrait mode, click the 'start' button at the bottom of the screen. 3 - Once camera has started, click the 'record' button. 4 - Wait a few seconds then click 'stop recording' button. 5 - A link will appear 'Click here to view video', click the link. 6 - The video will load but rotated 90 degrees.

From other similar reports, I expect that this is already fixed via bug 281816, but leaving to experts to confirm.
