Webcam has no option to flip from mirror view

My Galaxy Book 4 Pro 360's built in webcam (Intel(R) AV Stream - Camera Sensor OV02C10) does not seem to have the option to flip it so that it isn't mirrored all the time. I want the camera to behave like a camera - NOT a mirror!

It WILL flip in apps like Zoom and Teams, but not outside of them.

I have tried ALL the (limited) suggestions on the internet including updating drivers (even though it says it has most recent driver), settings in Camera and via device manager but there is no option anywhere to flip the view from mirror. The only thing I haven't done is uninstall and reinstall.

I'll be disappointed if, after spending a lot of money on this machine, I have a crappy camera that can't do a simple thing like flip the view when I want it flipped. Anyone out there have any suggestions to make this work?

Update: Having spoken to Samsung, it appears that, as it is a front facing camera, it doesn't have the option to flip it. So it can't properly be used as a webcam. Disappointing.

Hi, I'm a bit confused by what you mean when you say 'flip'. There's only one camera on your device isn't there, a front camera. No rear camera? When the front camera is on, it looks straight at you, yes, so it's like you're looking in the mirror. At this point, what do you want it to 'flip' to? Sorry if I'm being a bit thick here, but I'm genuinely confused.

Hello,

I have the same problem that he said. There is no option to flip the camera, I mean, to rotate 180º the camera. I cant even do it on discord. I see my camera like an invert image and I cont find the option to rotate it.

Regards,

Same for me and even when you find advance camera setting the flip option isn't an option because AUTO is selected all other option are greyed out and unavailable. And AUTO cannot but unselected. I hate using an external camera because I spent so much money on this machine.
