Technique #2: Samsung Secret Service Menu
Use a Samsung TV and enter the service menu to turn on mirror flipping. Make sure you’re using a Samsung model 5300 or above. To enter the service menu, turn off your TV and press the following buttons on a standard remote: Mute + 182 + power to turn it back on. When it loads, you’ll see the service menu–just change the H Flip option. Turn your TV back off and on again, and it will be in mirror mode. The most popular Samsung models that support this are the N5300 (1080p) and Q50R (ultra thin, 4k).
If you plug your laptop or tablet into the screen it can mirror flip it. Make sure it’s a Samsung TV model N5300 or above. You can also plug Android and iPad tablets into a TV screen through the USB-C or lightning port using an HDMI to USB-C cord, I’ll leave you the links down below.
Technique #3: Use A Mac
It’s easier to flip PowerPoint on a Mac or MacBook laptop than on a Windows PC. The mirror flip function is supported within MacOS, but you’ll need a program to unlock this feature. We developed a simple utility for MacOS so you can mirror flip your screen using our Mac Mirror Flip Utility linked down below.
Technique #4: Air Display App
Connect your Mac using the app Air Display. This handy app allows you to project your Mac onto an iPad and also supports built-in mirror flipping.
Technique #5: Use Linux
If you’re running Linux, it has the mirror flip mode built into the OS. If you’re on a Windows PC or laptop, you can install Linux on a flash drive to boot into Linux anytime you need the mirror flip function. The following commands enable various mirror flip options: [in editing, display on screen as static text]
xrandr –output –reflect-x
export DISPLAY=:0.0 && xrandr –output $a –reflect x
xrandr -x (will flip de video horizontally like a mirror.)
xrandr -y (will flop de video vertically.)
xrandr -y -x (will both flip and flop (= invert).)
xrandr -o (inverted will…invert O.o)
xrandr -o (normal will return to normal the video)

Technique #8: Use A First Surface Mirror
If you’d prefer to use technology that can’t fail, you can mirror flip your display using a First Surface Mirror. A first surface mirror provides a high quality reflection on the face of the glass so there’s no double image.
Technique #9: Flip It In VLC Player
Transform your video in VLC player using Video Effects - Geometry - Transform. You’ll need to record your PowerPoint into a video file, such as mp4 format, before you can use VLC to play it. If you need it on the go, simply upload it to your YouTube as a private video and you can conveniently play it back on any device.
In conclusion, the best way to flip slides quickly is by running Mac or Linux, or use hardware such as an HDMI MirrorBox or Samsung TV.
