Laptop as Mobile Video Unit

[catman]

I'll try to make this as short as possible.

I have a powerbook g4 laptop which is mounted to the sunroof upside down. do you see where I'm going with this? I'm running system 10.2.8 Jaguar on it and have a fm modulator to get sound trough the car system. every thing is great except one thing. the picture is upside down.

Any thoughts.

Some things I've already discovered are:

VLC media player (http://www.videolan.org) says if could flip the image 180 during playback. didn't work.

So Far no good filters or plug Ins. I've looked everywhere for everything It seems hopeless. any help will be appreciated.

Is it permanently mounted? If so, you could find a competent computer repair shop to actually flip the screen inside the housing. They may have to extend the interface cable but that should just be a matter of unplug, plug in an extension and hook back up.

the laptop is not mounted permanently and functions as a regular computer at home. My wife will have a hissy fit if everything she looks at is upside down.

I can sympathize. I'm at a loss for another solution as I'm not at all familiar with Macs.
