can anybody tell me how I can flip the mirror image output in motioneye .I am using a pi3 with a v2 8meg pi camera with the latest pi3 motioneyeos.I have now tested 3 different cameras with the same pi3 running the same pi3 motion software and the results were. Usb web camera works perfectly. Pi camera version 1 works perfectly. pi camera version 2 works but camera image is mirrored. Can anybody tell me if this is a os issue or pi camera issue.

Out of curiosity, didn't you already post this question? Did you just forget the password to your original account (you could always reset it and edit the original question)?– user44926Commented May 17, 2016 at 23:14

yes Grant it was me....still learning. I have decided to post the answer to my own question from a post i found from someone called Gavros:
If you are using the motioneyeos image, you can fix this by doing the following:
ssh into your device using putty.
create this file using the nano command:
nano /data/etc/userinit.sh add the below line into the userinit.sh file
v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl horizontal_flip=1
save and reboot your device.
Thanks Gavros worked for me problem sorted.
I'm using the "motion" program but not under motioneyeos. I was able to flip the image by putting the above mentioned "v4l2-ctl" command into /etc/rc.local and reboot. Works great!
