DVD-R burned in Windows DVD Maker plays upside down in DVD player

While using WIndows Movie Maker, I imported my video file ( which was in
avi format ) then dropped it into the timeline and noticed the preview
was displayed upside down. I read in a thread here about someone having
a similiar problem and did as they did: I right-clicked on it in the
timeline> went to effects > scrolled down until I saw 'rotate 180
degrees' and it flipped it around. Now I had one other problem, it
wasn't upside down anymore but now it displayed backwards. This wasn't
too much of a problem for me as long as it wasnt upside down anymore,
but after I burned it to disc and attempted to play it in my DVD player,
lo and behold it was all upside down again. I know its probably
something simple I'm doing wrong, or a codec issue maybe but could
anyone give me any advice? I'd very much appreciate it.

The ignore the upside down image on the monitor; it is wrong.

I had the same problem, what I did was added two effects. First I added
Mirror Horizontal and the Rotate 180. It seemed to have worked on the one I
tested. I hope this helps you out dear.
