Added thumbnailer since it also needs to rotate the still image that it gets from the hardware video decoder using GStreamer. Basically it needs to look for the "image-orientation" tag in the GstTagList that gets broadcasted by the Gst pipeline. Then look for values of "rotate-0", "rotate-90", "rotate-180", "rotate-270" for the queue in what to do. This info comes from the MPEG4 container file itself, parsed by qtdemux and added to a GstTagList. Take a look at qtvideo-node shadervideomaterial.cpp file for how to do the matrix operations manually. Or you might take a look at using the "videoflip" plugin from GStreamer to do this as it listens for the exact same GstTagList values that I mentioned above.
