How to Accommodate Portrait Video in Video on Demand on AWS Solutions

Question

I am running [Video on Demand on AWS solutions](https://aws.amazon.com/solutions/implementations/video-on-demand-on-aws/) infrastructure (the complete one, not the Foundation one). When I tried uploading portrait video the ending result is a landscape video but with left and right black padding wrapping the original portrait video. I would like to have landscape video to be converted to landscape video and portrait to portrait when played in the device. How do I achieve that?

The solution provide some job Template that you could modify under Mediaconvert Page -> Job Templates.
Anyways Add "Rotate": "AUTO" to VideoSelector in inputs. In this case, EMC will try to automatically rotate the video based on metadata if it's available.
