How to fix oculus rift inverted view

Question

Upon starting the demo in vr mode with an oculus rift CV1 the left and right headset movement is inverted. Ie. if I look left the screen moves to look right and the inverse happened looking right.

Any ideas?

Same here. In the Cessna take off tutorial. Clicking through the prompts with the mouse bought back proper head movement. The prompts cannot be seen inside the HMD. But I did take off and land a Cessna first time without crashing so this issue is trivial to overcome for someone like me ;p. After further testing even after getting proper head movement in the tutorial I could not manipulate the cockpit properly. I will be using a monitor for the tutorials then.

This is not something we've heard other reports of. Have you tried quitting & restarting everything (X-Plane, Oculus Home, etc)? Tried restarting the computer? There can be a lot of dependent processes to make it all work, so sometimes restarting the computer is the simplest way to get a clean start. 

Do resetting to default preferences help at all? If nothing has, you can file a bug report here with a copy of the log.txt.

I've seen one more report in the forums https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/forums/topic/143321-inverted-movement-with-rift/. I messaged this person and they said they were unable to find a solution and ended up getting a refund on their copy.

I've restarted a few times and haven't tweaked any settings since installing. Very odd. Will file a bug report.
