Subject: Flipping the video from webcams
Date: Thu, 10 Jul 2008 19:24:58 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200807101924.58802.Rainer.Koenig@gmx.de> (raw)

Hello,

I've got a notebook with an integrated webcam and I got a driver (r5u870) that 
works fine with it, except that the camera images I get are all upside down. 
It seems that due to a desgin flaw the camera was assembled upside down and 
there is no easy way to turn it. So I need to rotate the picture with 
software, which practically means "flip X" and "flip Y". I even found some 
bits in the driver that look like they address this issue, but turning them 
to "1" (instead of 0) doesn't help at all. 

So I wonder: Is there a way to flip the picture that is coming from the camera 
by setting some options somewhere so that my IM client gets the picture in 
the right orientation?

TIA
Rainer
