Re: Cam Flipped

 

To solve this issue I followed the guide found here:
http://radu.cotescu.com/2009/11/05/flipped-images-ubuntu-webcam/

It makes life allot easier.

in brief:
There's a launchpad ppa with the precompiled patched v4l libraries.
these are the bash instructions to copy and paste
echo -e "\n# libv4l PPA\ndeb http://ppa.launchpad.net/libv4l/ppa/ubuntu `lsb_release -c | awk '{print $2}'` main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com C3FFB4AA
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libv4l-0to start applications you need to preload so:

LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so your_application_comandHope this makes peoples' lives easier.
