Swap Face Now
DeepLiveCam is a desktop real-time face swap app that puts one source photo onto a live webcam or a local video file. Lite, GitHub source, and paid Ultimate Quickstart cover NVIDIA, AMD, and Apple Silicon, with local processing when you skip Lite.
While DeepLiveCam live starts from a webcam plus one still, VidMage locks one identity still onto the recorded talking file. The recorded pair goes to VidMage video face swap.
What it does, where it wins, where it falls short.

Output size, swap model, preview fps, then the printed daily lane.
DeepLiveCam Ultimate live is different from VidMage paid video because the resolution switch stops at 1080, however VidMage subscriber talking clips print 4K. GitHub live does not list a 4K preview either. VidMage video face swap returns that 4K talking file.

DeepLiveCam GitHub live sits on Inswapper 128. Ultimate can add HyperSwap 256 and ReSwapper 256. VidMage video face swap hides that picker and hosts the swap, so the next recorded talking file does not wait on a local model download.

DeepLiveCam live on a 6GB NVIDIA card sits near 8 fps. VidMage returns a finished talking file instead of a preview frame rate. VidMage video face swap is the recorded cut when a preview fps is not the deliverable.

DeepLiveCam GitHub stays $0 if you can install it. VidMage prints 15 photos and 20 talking seconds, plus two GIFs, on the daily lane. That daily try sits on VidMage video face swap for the recorded talking file.

Last checked 2026-08-28. Official credit math. VidMage prints photo and second yields. DeepLiveCam Quickstart is a desktop license.
VidMage yearly credits near $100 become 4,800 stills or 80 minutes of talking video. DeepLiveCam NVIDIA $22 buys the live desktop app. The units are not the same.
Boot time, credit seconds, then the hosted file clock.
DeepLiveCam usually spends 5 to 10 minutes before a live preview. VidMage video face swap starts on the recorded talking file without that boot.
NVIDIA Quickstart is $22 a month for the live desktop app, whereas VidMage $14.99 prints 400 talking seconds.
DeepLiveCam local mode stays on the desktop when you skip Lite. VidMage hosted talking files drop after two hours.
Leave the live webcam preview, then sit one still on a recorded talking file.
Leave the live webcam preview when the next job is a recorded talking file, not a virtual camera feed.
Export the talking session as a saved MP4. Free talking video stops at 20 seconds. Subscriber talking clips stop at 300 seconds.
Skip the Inswapper, HyperSwap, and ReSwapper picker. VidMage video face swap hosts the model.
Park the identity still beside that MP4 on VidMage video face swap. Download the swapped talking file when the job finishes.
Answers to the questions forums, complaints, and buyers actually raise.
