Hi,

Please let me know the right place to call the mirrorVideo() API? Does it mirror the video of self and all the other participants?

**Which Web Video SDK version?**  
1.3.0

**Device (please complete the following information):**

- Device: [e.g. Laptops & Desktops]
- OS: [e.g. Windows]
- Browser: [e.g. Chrome]

Hi @kvr ,

This function is not a part of our [Video SDK API](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/api-reference/video-sdk/methods/#overview) – , but I see a mirrored boolean function in [the reference doc for Video SDK web](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/sdk/video/web/reference/). Is this what you were referring to?

If yes, it’s mirrored self video.

If you found mirrorVideo() elsewhere, can you please link?

Thanks,  
Gianni

Hey @kvr

The `mirrorVideo` only takes effect on the self video. Other participants still see your unmirrored video.

Thanks  
Vic

Hi @vic.yang ,

When the user shares the screen content, the mirroring of self video is not functioning. Please let me know if there is any solution?

Thanks  
Krishnan

Hey @kvr

Did you enable the SharedArrayBuffer in Chrome or Edge? If not, I supposed that you were using the Video Element to serve the self video, so the mirror effect cannot take effect.

Thanks  
Vic
