Google Meet clients see Horizontal Flipped image of what I have locally

Everything on my system looks fine and works great using Virutal Cam with Google Meet -- EXCEPT that when others join the meeting (regardless of platform) they see a horizontally flipped image! It comes out correct on their end if I flip locally, but then I can't work very well with a flipped screen!!
Please assist!

This is a problem with Google Meet and most other meeting software - they flip the preview for you (and you only) so you see it as if you were looking into a mirror. Bug them to add an option to disable flip :). To clarify, you should see everything fine in the OBS preview, only the vcam preview will be flipped. You do not need to flip in either OBS or vcam.

Thank you. That's what I was afraid of...

Jitsi is another video conferencing solution. If you don't know what it is, you don't use it, so do not bother ;)

R1CH explained that this mirroring only appears at the conferencing software's view of yourself. So please resist the temptation then to solve it, as you will have a good view yourself but everybody else in the online meeting will have the flipped image.
