Lossless image inversion of RAF files for film scanning? (C1, SilkyPix...)

Thank you for this; it changes my life.

I'm on a Mac, and using Capture One Express 23, so I ran this command in Terminal.app to copy the files to my user Styles directory:

rsync -av \
/Applications/Capture\ One\ 23.app/Contents/Packages/CH/Styles/Film\ Scanning/*/*.costyle \
~/Library/Application\ Support/Capture\ One/Styles/

Then I can select them like any other style.

This approach is not perfect. for example, "Color Negative Generic 03" wants to flip things horizontally. Maybe this just means I'm scanning the negatives upside down?

Regardless, this gives me another solution besides Darktable (unhappy with the UI, UX, ergonomics) or FilmLab (unhappy with software quality, technical details, edge cases, tweak ability).

I've considered writing my own program leveraging libraw, but I have a day job already...
