I am facing a problem, when using webcam command.
When my webcam started, if I try to preview webcam object, inverted image is produced without modification in the webcam properties.
How I can get correct video preview and image?

It does not look like the generic USB webcam object has a flipping property.

So I don't think you can get a live flipped version. You'll have to physically turn your camera upside down, or else go with a more expensive machine vision camera that has such a flipping property. Or else just flip a snapped image after it's been snapped with flipud() or imrotate().

I don't know - that's weird. I can't reproduce that behavior. For me it's not inverted. I suggest you call tech support.
