BackgroundVideoDisplay class

A widget that displays either processed (background-replaced) video frames or falls back to standard RTCVideoView when no background is active.

This widget is designed to be used as a videoBuilder in CardVideoDisplay or as a replacement for the video surface in VideoCard when the local participant has a virtual background enabled.

Usage:

// In a VideoCard or CardVideoDisplay, use this as a video overlay
BackgroundVideoDisplay(
  videoStream: localStreamVideo,
  doMirror: true,
  objectFit: RTCVideoViewObjectFit.RTCVideoViewObjectFitCover,
)

How it works:

  1. Checks BackgroundProcessorService.hasBackground to see if processing is active
  2. If processing active: Shows CustomPaint with processed frames
  3. If not processing: Shows standard RTCVideoView with raw camera
  4. Automatically updates when frames are ready via callback
