Top-Rope belaying with a Cinch.

I just bought a cinch. I am used to belaying with a Gri Gri and was wondering if it matters if the face plate on the cinch is facing the left as long as the rope is threaded correctly. In this instructional video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkOVssfihn0, it says to make sure the faceplate is facing to the left and that the rope to the climber is coming out of the front of the cinch. When top-rope belaying with the Gri Gri I always have the break rope coming out of the front of the gri gri, I don't think it should matter but I just thought I would see what others thought. Thanks!
