        Hello, I just started developing a simple image processing app with qml and python and had question regarding setting up the camera feed.

        My Main.qml file currently has:

        import QtQuick 2.7
        import QtMultimedia 5.4
        import Ubuntu.Components 1.3
        import QtQuick.Layouts 1.3
        import Qt.labs.settings 1.0
        import io.thp.pyotherside 1.3
        
        MainView {
            id: root
            objectName: 'mainView'
            applicationName: 'example-hello.none'
            automaticOrientation: true
            width: units.gu(45)
            height: units.gu(75)
        
            Page {
                id:main
                anchors.fill: parent
                width: 640
                height: 360
        
                header: PageHeader {
                id: header
                title: i18n.tr('Camera')
                }
        
                Camera {
                    id: camera
                    imageProcessing.whiteBalanceMode: CameraImageProcessing.WhiteBalanceFlash
                    exposure {
                        exposureCompensation: -1.0
                        exposureMode: Camera.ExposurePortrait
                    }
                    flash.mode: Camera.FlashRedEyeReduction
                    imageCapture {
                        onImageCaptured: {
                            photoPreview.source = preview  // Show the preview in an Image
                        }
                    }
                    transform: Rotation { origin.x: 25; origin.y: 25; angle: 45}
        
                }
        
                VideoOutput {
                    source: camera
                    anchors.fill: parent
                    focus : visible // to receive focus and capture key events when visible
                }
        
                Image {
                    id: photoPreview
                }
                
            }
        
        //declare a variable to import a Python module
            Python {
                id: python
        
                //connect main.py
                Component.onCompleted: {
                    addImportPath(Qt.resolvedUrl('../src/'));
                    importModule_sync("main")
                }
        
                onError: {
                    console.log('python error: ' + traceback);
                }          
            }
        }
        

        Camera is working but the view is flipped, I tried using a Transform to rotate it but the app crashes, what am I missing here? also is it possible to send the camera feed in real time to a python function in my main.py file that I linked at the end?

        Testing device : Volla Phone
        note: normal camera app is working properly, so the issue is code related
