When I turn a video 90 degrees, it crops away

Here is a screenshot showing the problem: https://prnt.sc/unhjpc

When I recorded my piano part, it recorded 90 degrees upside down because of the glitch (can not fix it). So when I try to turn the video the correct way everything gets cropped away. How do I turn the video 90 degrees without everything being cropped? Searched everywhere on the internet, couldn't find the problem, so here I am.

I'm on Sony Vegas Pro 17, Windows 10.

Use track motion, not pan/crop.

Is your problem the same as this? https://www.vegascreativesoftware.info/us/forum/rotating-a-video--117449/#ca732497

I might have the same problem with some smartphone videos. When I drag the clip down to the track and select project settings to match the media, then the orientation looks like this 2160x3840. The clip needs to be rotated by 90 degrees

Here is how I fix it:

- Change project settings to 3840x2160

- Event pan/crop: Unlock aspect ratio, change width to 3840, height to 2160, rotate 90

Seems I've fixed this before by specifying the clips rotation in properties/media/rotation

Which...now that I've read it, appears to be what EricLNZ is saying above.
