My uncle got a reverse camera installed on his RV and is trying to flip the image. The guys that installed it said it couldn't be done. When you are driving in it the yellow line is on the right side of the screen. Could something be wired into it to flip the image?

I dont know the right name of it or if there are packages available for automotives, but it can definitely be DONE

effects boards can do all kinds of stuff live w/o delay, so the technology is surely out there

"Mirror Image Capability A rear view camera system should have the capability to produce a 'mirror' (or 'reverse') image through the camera and/or monitor. Many of the systems sold (especially those on eBay) don't have this capability. It doesn't matter whether the camera produces a 'mirror' image, or the monitor reverses the image left to right, or as on some high end systems, both the camera and monitor can switch between 'normal' and 'mirror' images. Why do you want a 'mirror' image? In order to see the same type of image that you would see in a rear view mirror, the camera and/or monitor must be capable of reversing the image produced. This capability will provide the same type of image through a rear view camera system that you would see if you were looking into a rear view mirror, and that's exactly what you want for safe operation. Many high end systems not only allow you to select between a 'normal' and 'mirror' image, but also permit you to 'flip' the picture vertically for additional camera mounting options. If a system doesn't specifically list this feature, then it almost certainly doesn't have this feature. Never even consider purchasing a rear view camera system that doesn't have this feature."
