Recommendation: ability to change background while running.

Restarting the process could be inconvenient in some scenarios. The simplest way to do this would be to regularly check whether the background file has been replaced.

If you need the ability to change the background at any time it's best to use a tool like OBS Studio and use deepseg only to perform the background segmentation. That's also what the s shortcut on the debug window is for, so you can disable the background replacement at any time when another tool is providing the background for you instead.

This would work fine for a pixel-sharp segmentation, however I am experimenting with smooth mask borders and a smooth transition is hard to fix properly in OBS. One could also output just the mask and mix it with the webcam in OBS, however that can lead to problems with multiple programs accesing the webcam.

Besides that, it would also be a good convenience feature, that uses less resources, and takes less effort, than mixing with OBS.
