Release notes
## Release 3.7.5 (2026-01-07)
We're excited to announce LiveBackgroundRemovalLite version 3.7.5! This update introduces a helpful new feature plus minor maintenance improvements, making your real-time background removal experience even more flexible.
### Notable Changes
**New: Force mask without Delay option ("syncfilter")**
- You can now apply the mask instantly—without any delay—using the new "Force mask without Delay" setting in the OBS filter properties.
- This feature allows mask application in real-time, which is great for scenarios needing immediate effect, but may slightly reduce FPS on some systems.
- The new setting (`forceNoDelay`) is fully integrated into the plugin UI, property management, and rendering logic for a smooth experience.
**Internationalization**
- The "Force mask without Delay" property is now clearly labeled and translated across all supported languages, including English, German, Spanish, French, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese.
**Maintenance**
- Removed a legacy `.gemini/settings.json` configuration file for a cleaner codebase.
