Feature request: Add horizontal screen mirroring for physical teleprompters #29

Description

@kmje405

Description

I use Notch Prompter on an Apple device with a NEEWER beam-splitter teleprompter. The NEEWER teleprompter requires the displayed text to be horizontally reversed so that it appears correctly when reflected in the teleprompter glass.

The NEEWER Teleprompters own app automatically mirrors its display for this purpose, because it's viewed as a reflection through the beam splitter but I would prefer to use Notch Prompter. At present, I cannot find a way to horizontally flip the prompter output within Notch Prompter.

Requested change

Please add an option to horizontally mirror the teleprompter display.

This could be implemented as a setting or toolbar control labeled something like:

  • Mirror display
  • Flip horizontally
  • Teleprompter glass mode

When enabled, the entire prompting view should be horizontally reversed so that the text reads normally in beam-splitter teleprompter glass.

Use case:

  1. Open a script in Notch Prompter.
  2. Connect mac to teleprompter
  3. Enable Mirror Display.
  4. Read the correctly oriented text through the teleprompter glass.

Additional context

This would make Notch Prompter compatible with NEEWER teleprompters and other common beam-splitter teleprompter hardware without requiring users to switch to the manufacturer’s proprietary app.

Thank you for considering this feature.
