Hello Sharky Xbox,

Thank you for your prompt response.

By the way we would like to ask few questiosns.

1. What is the make and model for your webcam?

2. What is the streaming provider you are using?

If there is no option in flip the camera to mirror image, is it happening to other streaming provider?

To use live stream with a webcam on your Xbox Console, you’ll need a 1080p webcam that has a YUY2 or NV12 format to stream with it. Most Logitech and Microsoft LifeCam webcams have this format. If you’re not sure which format your webcam has, check with the manufacturer.

For the best experience, we recommend these webcams:

• Microsoft LifeCam Studio
  
• Microsoft LifeCam HD-3000
  
• Logitech C922 Pro Stream Webcam
  
• Logitech C930e Webcam
  

To take a mirror image:

• Plug your USB webcam into your Xbox.
  
• Allow your camera to be used for live streaming if you haven’t already:
  
  • Press the Xbox button to open the guide, go to System & profile > Settings > Account > Privacy & online safety > Xbox privacy > View details & customize > Communication & multiplayer and make sure you can use video for communications.
    
  • In the guide, go to Capture & share > Live streaming > Camera options and check that your camera is set to On.
    
• Open a live streaming provider app and follow the instructions for streaming.
  
• Start your live stream.
  

To stream from a live streaming provider on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One, download the app for the provider you want to use. Press the Xbox button to open the guide and select Store > Apps. Find and select the app, and then select Install.

Hi Tomm, Thank you for the response.

The webcam is working on my Xbox Series S, and I am using the it for streaming not for taking photos.

I can access the camera positioning setting on the xbox but there is no option in flip the camera to mirror image.

Hello Sharky Xbox,

It appears that you are having some queries if you can flip the image on a USB camera connected to your Xbox Console. Let us check on this together and sort this out. Rest assured that we will provide the needed information to address your concern in a timely manner.

Hello, I'm Felipe and I'm an independent Community Advisor, and I'll do my best to help you.

The Razer Kiyo Pro is compatible with Xbox Series S, but you need to connect it to the console through a USB 3.0 port using a USB Type-C to Type-A cable. You can then access the camera through the settings on your Xbox Series S.

If you're still having issues with the camera not working after connecting it, make sure the camera is selected as the default camera in the console's settings. If that doesn't work, try disconnecting and reconnecting the camera or restarting the console.

Also, make sure you have the latest firmware and drivers installed for the Razer Kiyo Pro. You can download them from the Razer website.
