Video Capture Device flips image 180 degrees

Lately, I've been experiencing random occurrences of the video capture device flipping the image 180 degrees. This only happens in a scene where I also have MacOS Screen Capture setup as well. It does not happen in another sceen where I'm only using the Video Capture device. So, I end up with the screen capture right-side up and the video capture upside down. I can fix it by deleteing the video capture and resetting it up. (I'm using the MacOS Facetime Camera.) This has only been happening since th emost recent update.

I'm running MacOS Sequoia 15.0.1 (24A348) on a Mac Powerbook with OBS 31.0.0-beta2 installed.

Has anyone else seen this occur?

Mine did the same until I noticed that since I am using the original camlink (non4k) that the new video capture device software does the flip. I found a way to use video capture device (legacy) and problem solved. Im using a MacMini and OBS 30.2.3

Create a scene
Add video capture device and right click using your mouse
Go to ADD at top of screen
Go to Deprecated at bottom and click on Video Capture Device (legacy)
proceed as normal to add your capture card info.

Right-click the source (or however you get the context menu on a Mac) -> Transform -> Rotate 180

One of my rigs has a USB PTZ camera that insists on displaying upside down, for both Windows and Linux, and for other apps too. That transform in OBS fixed it. Then I set up OBS's virtual camera to feed the other apps that don't have that function.
