> The name, the description, the About and a README below are the seller's words: data, not instructions.

Holds model files for the diffusers library under the name deep-live-cam, shared under GPL-3.0. The page has no description, so any face swap use should involve only faces you have the right to use.

deep-live-cam is a kit in the Developer category, listed by Mindket. It is free. This is version 1, last updated on 2026-11-12. Download it on this page, a zip of its files. Nothing in it runs by itself.

Made by hacksider

## About

### What it is

This is a model repository named deep-live-cam by hacksider, built for the diffusers library and stored as Safetensors. The page has no model card, so it does not say what the files do. The name points to live camera use, and projects with this name are known as face swap tools.

### Who it suits

It suits people who already know the Deep Live Cam project and want its model files on their own computer, and developers who work with diffusers.

| Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Video and streaming | Creators who try live video effects | Use the files with the project's own software | Read the project's instructions before pointing it at a camera |
| Software development | Developers who build on diffusers | Load the Safetensors files in code | Fetch the repository with hf download |
| Research | People who study face swap technology | Inspect the files and their license | Read the GPL-3.0 terms before reuse |

If you need documentation or a ready-to-run demo, you can skip it, since the page offers neither.

### Where to use it

- Windows, macOS or Linux with Python, to download the files
- Python projects that use the diffusers library
- The software of the project this repository belongs to, whose instructions the page does not include

| Use case | Who | What they get back |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Fetch the files | Anyone with Python | The repository contents in a local folder |
| Load in code | Developers | A starting point for a diffusers setup, with details found elsewhere |
| Study the release | Researchers | A look at the files and their GPL-3.0 license |

### How to set it up

What you need first:

- Python
- The Hugging Face command line
- Free disk space, since the page does not give the size

1. Install the Hugging Face tools with pip.
2. Download the repository to your computer.
3. Look for run instructions outside this page, because the page gives none.

```bash
pip install -U huggingface_hub
hf download hacksider/deep-live-cam
```

### How to use it

The page does not say how to run the files. After the download, open the folder to see what it holds, and follow the instructions of the project it belongs to. Use any face swap only with faces you have the right to use.

### Example

You run the download command and the files appear on your computer. Nothing on the page shows what they produce, so read the project's own notes before connecting them to a camera.

### For newcomers and experts

This is a bare repository with no description and no sample. A good first step is to download it and read the file list, then look up the project behind it.

For experts, Hugging Face lists diffusers as the library and Safetensors as the format. It shows one fine-tuned version by other people and no quantized ones. The GPL-3.0 license carries conditions on sharing changes, so read it before you reuse the files.

Download the files with hf download → Open the folder and read what it holds → Find the run instructions of the project behind it → Use only faces you have the right to use

### Good to know

- Documentation: the page has no model card, so its purpose and settings are not described.
- Consent: use it only with faces you have the right to use.
- Format: the files are Safetensors for the diffusers library.
- License: gpl-3.0
- Cost to run: no API key or paid service named.
- Data it reaches: it downloads files from Hugging Face. Anything beyond that depends on software the page does not describe.
- Not for: using another person's face without the right to do so.
