BlackMagic App - Lefthand orientation?

PostThu Mar 21, 2024 4:15 am

I recently tore my rotator cuff and can't raise my right arm. So I wanted to see if there's a way to flip the app's UI. I.e. when I hold my iPhone with the lens on the lower-left, I'd like the side columns with the record button, etc. + the camera, media, etc. icons to appear on the left side of the screen.

E.g.: camera, etc. icon column | record button column | main area.

Is there a setting I'm missing?

I'm afraid there’s no option for that, you can only have one of the volume buttons triggering record. The lenses will always be at the upper left, BTW.
There’s another camera app where we can at least move the record button for the touch interface to the left. But since one person here in the forum fights against it, send me a PM if you want to know its name. It’s not Voldemort, actually. :-)
My disaster protection: export a .drp file to a physically separated storage regularly.
