Webcam image is horizontally flipped
Hi,
When you see your selfview in Teams it will be flipped, so it is easier for you. But when the other participants in the meeting see your video they will see it the correct way. So text will be mirrored for you but the correct way for others.
After weeks of reading and trying everything including registry hacks I finally found a solution that works for me. My son goes to school remotely and the mirror image issue makes it impossible for him to hold up his worksheets for his 1st grade teacher to review. Quite frustrating to say the least.
I went to the Microsoft store and installed the "Camera Alternative" app. It does not offer any settings to change the orientation but it corrected the mirror image issue for me on Teams and other apps that were showing the mirror image issue. It's absolutely asinine that MS can't fix this issue and pretends it doesn't exist. It's almost enough to make be buy a Mac. Technodude
No it doesn't Tom_Akers !
Teams will show only you a preview of your video flipped, your son's teacher will see the video the correct way round, not flipped. By using some app to flip your image first, although it might now look correct to you it will be flipped for his teacher.
