Mirroring Problems

Post by bikefreak »

I know that I'm doing something wrong here, but I don't know what...

No matter what I do the spokepov mirrors the image. I put the pictures in the banks with the mirror option turned off the whole time. I only have 10 leds on one side because I'm testing the bars and on this one side the image is mirrored. I spin the wheel as if I'm riding and its mirrored. Any solutions?

Thanks, I knew it was something as stupid as this.

If (like me) you've put your spokepov on backwards, you can always flip your images instead. Easier than removing and re-attaching it.

Also, the logic on mine seems exactly opposite to that described on the web page, i.e. it says:
"For example, if you have text you want to display, the image should not be mirrored"
but if I select "Don't mirror" then my text is backwards on one side and forwards on the other.

I purposely put mine on the opposite side (left) because the display is better on one side than the other sue to the image blocking by batteries and wheel parts. I figured my audience is mostly in cars (on my left) and only sometimes on foot on the right.
