I'm a bit perplexed. Generating a 3-4 sec clip with 1280x720 @25fps resolution with 12 steps and the LoRa on my RTX 4090 (12900k 128GB DDR4) takes a whopping 20 minutes. Is that normal? VRAM and GPU seem to be maxed out the entire time. If that's normal; thats fine. But is it?

I fixed the pose and depth issues via manual download and placement. if you have this issue pop the error logs into chat gpt it will take a while but you will get it fixed

Hi, I've tried to make a test video, and I keep getting the same kind of error : When I tried with the medium model, it gave me this error : MPS backend out of memory (MPS allocated: 33.17 GiB, other allocations: 164.62 MiB, max allowed: 36.27 GiB). Tried to allocate 3.15 GiB on private pool. Use PYTORCH_MPS_HIGH_WATERMARK_RATIO=0.0 to disable upper limit for memory allocations (may cause system failure). And now I've tried with the lowest model, and it took like a full 24 hours (it's a 7 second video that I've reduced to 720x480 and 2 seconds), and it gives me this error : MPS backend out of memory (MPS allocated: 16.67 GiB, other allocations: 19.58 GiB, max allowed: 36.27 GiB). Tried to allocate 759.38 MiB on private pool. Use PYTORCH_MPS_HIGH_WATERMARK_RATIO=0.0 to disable upper limit for memory allocations (may cause system failure). I have a M1 Max Mac Studio with 32GB. Is it just not enought ? Or is there a wrong parameter somewhere ? Thanks for your help :)

I just upgraded my GPU to 5070 Ti 16 GB VRAM, but I get this error after the Controlnet finishes the process: KSampler Allocation on device (in ComfyUI) And the following in the console: =================== File "C:\AI\ComfyUI_windows_portable\ComfyUI\comfy\ldm\flux\math.py", line 43, in apply_rope xk_out = freqs_cis[..., 0] * xk_[..., 0] + freqs_cis[..., 1] * xk_[..., 1] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ torch.OutOfMemoryError: Allocation on device Got an OOM, unloading all loaded models. Prompt executed in 1.62 seconds =================== I even downloaded the "Wan2.1-VACE-14B-Q4_K_S.gguf" thinking maybe the 5 is heavy, but sadly the same error. Any idea what is going on? Is there something wrong with my new GFX Card ?

you are running out of memory unfortunately, make sure you are running the latest nvidia drivers as well with sysmem fallback activated

Mailman · May 29, 2025

It doesn't work for me. It generates the depth preview but there is no output. It also doesn't seem to even begin generating the video but just stops after pose preview. No, wait. It says something about composing but it's gone too fast to be real. And yeah, then... no video output.

Aitrepreneur · May 29, 2025

dm me your parameters and gpu, you are probably running out of memory

What do we do when we are using runpod and there are missing nodes due to clean installation? Is there an easy way to download all missing nodes? I don't see that in the instructions anywhere.

Dear Aitrepreneur, thanx for your content! I haven't practiced AI for a long time, and now I'm trying to catch up with the changes over the past 2 years). It feels like several epochs have changed before my eyes))). But I have a question. You're saying that the model is uncensored. And nswf works can be found on the Internet. But all my attempts to generate uncensored content fail, even if all input files are nsfw. Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Can this just generate video from image with no reference video?

Killy_Blame · May 24, 2025

Interesting would be if you could make a workflow, that could help to make AMV with Vace.

A whole bunch of nodes missing on the Json file. I tried searching for them but can't seem to find them. Were they rename and changed? The VideoHelperSuite doesn't allow you to input a video file.

Aitrepreneur · May 23, 2025

have you used the installer? all the nodes and models will be downloaded

Download ffmpeg extract it to your main directory in C: then add it to your enviroments. ( Win button env ) copy the ffmpeg exe to the comfyUI root folder. rename the copyed one to ffmpeg.exe this helped me with that. good luck
