Chicony CNF7129 webcam flipped upside down in Cheese

[Yvan Masson]

Hi,

Using Ubuntu 18.04 on an Asus K61IC, webcam image is flipped upside down with Cheese. It is however OK when using VLC without any particular option, so maybe it is just a Cheese bug.

The webcam is a Chicony Electronics CNF7129.

Do not hesitate to ask if you need other information.

Regards,
Yvan
