Webcam shows mirror image using action script

Using Flash CS5.5 and action script 3 I have made a small application for image capturing through web cam and integrated it in php page working perfect also save image. But problem is it shows MIRROR image on screen means if I move my right hand on screen it shows left hand. My query is how can I correct this setting. Here is the code -

package take_picture_fla
{
    import com.adobe.images.*;
    import flash.display.*;
    import flash.events.*;
    import flash.media.*;
    import flash.net.*;
    import flash.ui.*;
    import flash.utils.*;

    dynamic public class MainTimeline extends MovieClip
    {
        public var capture_mc:MovieClip;
        public var bitmap:Bitmap;
        public var rightClickMenu:ContextMenu;
        public var snd:Sound;

        public function MainTimeline()
        {
            addFrameScript(0, frame1);
            return;
        }// end function
