Bug Description

Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 23.04
Release: 23.04
Codename: lunar

cheese:
  Installed: 44.0-1
  Candidate: 44.0-1
  Version table:

The main effect used in the camera should be the flip-effect, but the effect isn't working due to the property "method" being deprecated as you can see in "https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/documentation/videofilter/videoflip.html?gi-language=c"

The file located in /usr/share/gnome-video-effects/flip-effect is using the command: PipelineDescription=videoflip method=horizontal-flip

So the fix to this problem is to change the deprecated property to the new one, which is called "video-direction", the line should be: PipelineDescription=videoflip video-direction=horiz

after this changes the flip effect will work correctly
