Camera upside-down ASUS laptop
Posted: Sun Mar 24, 2019 8:21 pm
Hello, I am new user of MX Linux and I enjoy in it a lot. I run it on Asus laptop and have built-in camera. I encountered a small problem with the camera. When I run guvcview it works perfect, but in Firefox and Viber the camera image is upside-down.
I've done some research and found solution for Viber by changing Exec in /usr/share/applications/viber.desktop
Now camera output in viber is normal.
After that I tried similar solution for firefox /usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop
None of this changes solved the problem
Also tried Video4Linux Control Panel, but it seems every parameter changes work, except Horizontal and Vertical Flip.
Here is my sys. specifications:
