Mirroring Disabled while using Powerpoint as Virtual Background

I have confirmed that it is currently not possible to mirror your video while using the Slides as Virtual Background option. I'm very sorry about this inconvenience! I will be asking our documentation team to include this limitation in our article on the feature. I am however thinking this by design, as the mirrored video is only visible to you (meaning participants always receive the non-mirrored version). This could cause you to lean in the wrong direction while sharing and cover a portion of the presentation, as you would not be seeing the same video as the participants.

Looking forward to finding a resolution to this quickly as it gets very confusing for students watching math videos talking about left, right, clockwise, and counterclockwise. 🙂

Also waiting for video mirror to be available in powerpoint as virtual background. No reason to deactivate it. Thomas

I agree with Thomas. Mirroring is helpful for many presenters when they don't hide self-view. Without it, it is distracting. It would be great if Zoom included mirroring when sharing slides as background.
