And if you download a mirrored video, you can literally flip it and it'll be just like normal again.

This... this is a pretty big game changer.

What about videos where the actual show takes up 1/4 of the screen and thr other 3/4 is some artwork to throw off the algorithm

Both those are pretty terrible, but I think the absolute worse is when the video is sped up or slowed down. Especially if it's sped up just barely enough that it almost sounds normal but something is off, almost surreal, like the characters had ingested helium and it's starting to wear off.

If you slow it down to half speed, then viewers can cancel it out by setting the player to 2x speed.

I'm wondering if there's a browser plugin that can mirror videos so you can unmirror the already mirrored ones.

Adding to this, let's just say that Disney are by far the most persistent compared to the others like paramount or universal.
