OBS studio Transform > Flip Horizontal preview with Source Window Capture is a workaround by right-clicking the grey preview background and select Fullscreen Projector (Preview) > Display 1 but it is not fullscreen and not maximized. Windowed Projector (Preview) does not fill the whole window but once maximized is quite fine.
