#### AI virtual camera with background effects and noise removal for Linux

NV Broadcast is an AI-powered virtual camera and voice enhancement app for
Linux. It brings background blur, background replace, green-screen remove,
eye contact correction, face relighting, video enhancement, recording, and
local meeting transcription into one app.

What's new in v1.5.3:

* Keeps Camera, Audio, and preview controls usable in small windows.
* Preserves video and microphone audio in MP4 recordings, including when
  effects are disabled or changed during capture.
* Saves recordings in the desktop Videos folder and provides folder actions.
* Recovers processing choices after temporary GPU memory pressure and allows
  first-use GPU checks to finish compiling their kernels.
* Discovers cameras connected after startup and improves moving finger gaps
  and background edges at the tested settings.
* Verifies pinned meeting-model downloads and supports TensorRT libraries
  with Python 3.14 on supported Linux systems.

Retained reliability features:

* Retries advertised camera formats when the preferred mode cannot start.
* Restores the selected microphone and keeps Start/Stop controls aligned
  with the actual broadcast state.
* Verifies runtime ownership and real inference before enabling GPU modes.
* Provides local meeting transcription and cumulative contributor credits.
* Supplies checksums, build provenance, and a helper for affected legacy
  native-package upgrades.

Recent quality updates:

* v1.4.0 adds rebindable global effect shortcuts, Gaze Lock, live camera
  switching, crash-safe processing reloads, and improved hair-edge and
  microphone behavior.
* v1.3.0 adds a device-resident NVIDIA video path, stronger blur controls,
  safe camera and microphone power saving, corrected Apple Silicon camera
  selection, and cleaner sunlit replacement edges.
* Compute selection lets users choose Auto, GPU Focused, or CPU Focused
  behavior. GPU Focused selects the DocZeus/CUDA path when available, while
  CPU Focused keeps users on CPU modes when preferred.
* The arm64 Snap build stays portable and CPU-safe until Linux arm64 GPU
  wheels are available from upstream providers.

Core features:

* Blur your background
* Replace your background with an image
* Remove your background for green-screen workflows
* Eye contact correction while reading or presenting
* Face relighting to better match the background
* Video enhancement with skin smooth, denoise, enhance, and sharpen controls
* Voice studio tools plus local AI meeting transcription and summaries
* DocZeus, Zeus, Killer, CUDA, and CPU processing modes for different systems
* Works with Zoom, Chrome, OBS, Discord, and other webcam apps
