Rotate Video in Lightroom 5?

Is there an easy way to rotate videos in LR5? I shot some in portrait format (vertical). But they are displayed in landscape format in LR. Why is that? Do I need some other software or utility to accomplish this?

Thanks.

Most people seem to shoot cell phone video in portrait format. If you simply rotate it, the video will be sideways. What you want to do is widen it and make it less tall, but I don't see how that would be possible. I've read about cell phones that automatically shoot video in landscape more, even if the phone is held in the portrait position.

Not sure, but I bet you can edit a single frame and rotate it, then sync it to all frames. I know you can do other edits this way, so probably rotate, too.
