Hi,

We are trying to get mirrored view for self video by default as it is implemented in zoom app. As suggested, we tried flipping the video element. But we are unable to find the class name for the video element div and also how to distinguish between self video tile with any other tiles. So far we found the container class for the video tile but flipping it only flips the name of the participant in the left corner, not the video itself. Please look into this and kindly help us out with the solution.

Regards,  
@software4

Thank you for posting in the Zoom Developer Forum, @software4 ! Based on the described behavior, I am unsure if the SDK is intended to be used in the minor. While it is possible to modify the video elements, it can get complicated, and the developer’s burden will fall on you as this kind of customization is not supported.

However, if you are looking for a custom solution, you can leverage the Video SDK. If you want to develop with the Meeting SDK, then you can consider using the Native SDK, which supports customizing the UI and accessing raw video and audio data.

Let me know if you have any question about this.
