Un-mirror Your Video Feed in a Teams Meeting
When you view your own camera feed in a Teams meeting, you see your video feed as if you are looking in a mirror. Participants don't see the mirror image. But if you're on camera and...
- using a prop with text
- displaying a background filter with text
- wearing something with text
...that text appears flipped to you in your video feed.
If you prefer, you can un-mirror your video feed to match what participants see.
