Here are two threads full of solutions that worked for some people.
The funniest remark was that it is not a driver issue but an Asus one,
because the camera is really physically installed upside-down.
So one solution is to find a technician that can flip your camera.
Or if the computer is under warranty, demand it of your vendor.
How to Fix the Problem of ASUS Upside Down Webcam
Solutions in this thread:
- Modify WebCam setting, if the software allows it
- Download a Webcam Driver from the ASUS support site corresponding to your hardware PID
- Update Webcam Driver with Driver Detective
- Edit registry at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Sunplus SPUVCb\VIDEOPROCAMP
,
set VFlip value to 1.
Built-in camera upside down
Solutions in this thread:
1) adjust the settings
Run the camera through the Windows Explorer. Your camera built-in will
appear upside down, right?
Inside the folder with the drivers provided
by ASUS thereĀ“s a software called tsnp2std.exe.
With your camera
opened, run this application; you will notice a small icon in tray
area; right click on it and now choose the option: Open Property Page.
Well, now you should not have problem to setup and adjust the
settings.
2) Reinstall driver with flip
I resolved it by editing the snp2uvc.inf file. Open it with notepad
and search for the word "flip". You'll see entries like this:
HKR,DefaultSettings,Flip,0x00010001,0
and HKR,Settings,Flip,0x00010001,0
.
Change the last digit (zero) to a "1"
to all instances. Save the file and re-install your drivers manually
from Device Manager. Choose the driver to install, do not let Windows
search for you.
Reboot and your video will be in the correct
orientation.
3) Roll-back the driver to the original one that came with the computer
You need something that Skype recognises as a webcam, which I don't think is possible with VLC.
There's a freeware program called SplitCam which will let you stream a variety of sources to Skype.
