Step-by-Step Guide
First, make sure you have set up a scene in Streamlabs OBS where the image you want to rotate is located. For example, if your webcam is mounted for a live opening and the image is upside down, the following steps are necessary:
The first step is to select the source that you want to rotate by 180 degrees. This could be your webcam or a screen recording. In this example, we are using the webcam.

Right-click on the source. A context menu will appear. Here you will find the option “Transform”. Select this to see the rotation options.

In the opening submenu, you will find the option “180° rotation”. Click on it to perform the desired rotation.

Once you have done this, you will immediately see that the image has rotated by 180 degrees. Hold your image up to the camera to check if it is now correctly aligned.

If you also have a screen recording that is upside down, you can repeat the same process. Right-click on the source again, choose “Transform”, and then “180° rotation”.

After these steps, both the webcam image and the screen recording will be displayed correctly, and you can enjoy your streaming experience without any further difficulties.
