<pre wrap="">Not so snarky answer #3. You should check the nvidia X-server settings, or
use xrandr to see if you have somehow set ( in xrandr terminology) --rotate
inverted in your settings.

<pre wrap="">Wouldn't that rotate everything? (e.g. the menu screens and such, not
just video playback)
Does other software have the same behavior? (Try mplayer or vlc for
the same video.)

<font face="Tahoma">I apologize for the delay in getting back to everyone's suggestions. I had to fly to Australia to confirm the problem was reproducible there, stand on my head, smell my feet, and watch Monday night football on the couch ... now I'm exhausted. I truly appreciate everyone's feedback and I'm glad I was able to provide some levity for the team!
The machine successfully plays recordings in the U.S.A. in vlc with no orientation issues. In addition, in LiveTV the channel and streaming information is displayed right side up - only the video playback is rotated. I went ahead and included output from vdpauinfo, xrandr -q, and the xorg.conf file. This is a new build on AMD architecture and everything else works without problems.

Where would I find this filter? I ran through all of my backend and frontend setup scripts to no avail this evening.
