Landscape vs Portrait

[BLC]

My video is showing Landscape only. Although I have changed it to portrait several times and rebooted. Same landscape screen. Anyone out there to provide guidance. I'm on a Mac Pro.

It could be that your video is rotated. This article can show you how to fix that: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/115005859366

If you've already done that, it could in the web cam settings directly. Does this happen with both an external webcam and the built-in camera?

Dear Bort---

I hope you can help me.  I'm not on a cell phone but on a new Surface laptop, no added camera.  I don't want a camera, & shouldn't need one.  The built in camera in my laptop is fine.  I never needed a camera  before on Zoom, & I never changed any camera settings. 
Zoom worked fine until a few days ago when I clicked Yes to the Zoom update they sent me.  Ever since my free Zoom account updated, it started showing my meeting page (my face etc.) in LANDSCAPE.  The page is turned 90 degrees on my laptop screen, so to look at my face I would have to turn my physical head 90 degrees!  (Sideways!)  Hard on my neck, lol!

I can see no options in Zoom menu to switch between portrait & landscape, despite the fact that some commenters here say it exists.  If you know where this option is, please let me know.    
Of course people don't rotate laptops in their hand like they do cell phones, & laptop pictures won't automatically go top up if they did rotate the laptop. 

What did Zoom change in their latest update to cause this switching their meeting page in laptops to landscape (sideways) view?  It never did that before the update.  How do I switch it back to portrait?  It is unusable on my laptop the way it is!

--Thanks much, Josef7

I see that you asked this question nearly a year ago and have already found that you can click on your picture in the upper right and select swith to portrait mode or switch to landscape mode.  But with my Windows 10 Surface Pro even in portrait mode with the image rotated to upright, the image will not fill the screen.  There is still a small landscape window with a portrait image inside it.  On my iPad, the portrait image fills the entire screen.  I am looking for a way to do this on a Surface Pro.
