Mirrored screen in meeting

I'd like to broadcast a lecture with external cameras and the presenter screen but I just get it all in mirrored screens. Where do I change this settings in Teams/ W10?

The picture you see is mirrored but the video picture that others see from you will be correct. Can be confusing when you don't know this and just see your own and read text backwards.

There is no setting to change this in Windows 10 and if you have software that can switch it on your side it will be mirrored on attendees side instead.

I'm sorry, but this just blows my mind. Why would I EVER want to see a mirror image of my self in a video call or presentation? If I click on Preview, it is the very nature of that word (PREVIEW) indicates that I want to see what other users see. Please restore order to the galaxy and let us know when this gets fixed.

BFischer290 Totally agree - a preview should show whats visible, not a mirrored preview which is what this is!

I concur. Mirrored preview without a user toggle makes Teams practically unusable. Mirroring the preview causes nothing but confusion for those of who need to present documents and PP decks. I wish Microsoft would add a mirror toggle ASAP.
