This creates a fake video camera with a custom background that can be an image or a video (e.g. Shrek (2001)). It also supports closed captions, which must be in the srt format.
The background detection was stolen from this blog post: https://elder.dev/posts/open-source-virtual-background/
All of this code is bad. I threw a prototype together in a few hours, then wrote the rest of it in the middle of various Zoom calls. This repo is mostly only here so I can show people how this works, or how bad this code is.

Read commands.py.
You can run the reload
command to reload the commands and process_frame modules. This works well for adding new features while you're supposed to be paying attention to a Zoom call.
PRs are welcome, if you're insane enough to try to actually get this running on your machine.
