Recorded video not mirroring

[Madhavan1]

My video has been configured to mirror. And I can see the mirroring while the meeting is ongoing. But once it ends and the recording is downloaded, the recorded file doesn't have mirroring. I have a Macbook Air M3. Is there a solution to this?

Hello @Madhavan1,

Welcome to the Zoom Community! We're happy to have you here. 

The "Mirror my video" option in Zoom only affects how you see yourself, not how others see you or how your video is recorded. To mirror your video for others or for recording, you can use camera software to flip the image before it reaches Zoom. This ensures both your feed and the recording are mirrored.

Hi there, I am having the same issue. I am mirrored in my zoom meeting but not on the recording. Please can you be more precise about how to flip the image? I'm not aware of having camera software - it's just a plug in webcam. What do I do?!

Welcome to the Zoom Community, @Jennitoes!  In Zoom, the "Mirror my video" setting only changes how you see yourself, like a mirror. Other people still see you the normal way. Recordings also show the normal (not mirrored) view.

If you want everyone (and the recording) to see the mirrored version, you’ll need to use third-party camera software to flip the video before it goes into Zoom.
