cv2 is the import name provided by the OpenCV Python package, and it is not installed in the same environment that runs run.py. Since your prompt shows the DeepLiveCam environment, install the project's complete dependency set through that environment first:

python -m pip install --upgrade pip
python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
python -c "import cv2; print(cv2.__version__)"
python run.py

If the repository's requirements file does not contain OpenCV, install it explicitly:

python -m pip install opencv-python

Use opencv-python-headless only for a server without GUI/camera windows; for this desktop application on macOS, regular opencv-python is normally the correct package.

Also compare these paths to catch a pip/Python mismatch:

which python
python -m pip --version

Both should point inside the DeepLiveCam environment. Do not install a package named cv2—that is the module name, not the PyPI package name.
