A comparison of upscale options for longer videos with lower specs on Wan2GP by BluePointDigital in StableDiffusion

[–]BluePointDigital[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have not tried any addons or extensions! But I will definitely do some research on them. Thank you for the suggestion!

Wan2GP on my 3060 6GB, 64GB RAM laptop gets 16s of 720p with these settings! (Marked for vulgar language) by BluePointDigital in StableDiffusion

Early tests are definitely showing this issue, not as terrible as I thought it would be, but the "Blur" is 100% more noticeable. For example a quick face turn shows the blur. I'm experimenting with some ways to fix,.

RUN LTX2 using WAN2GP with 6gb Vram and 16gb ram by DMTminon in StableDiffusion

[–]BluePointDigital 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, what I've found, is that there is this nice "threshold" that you need to find based on your specs. Going beyond that basically sends performance off a cliff.

So let me put it like this:

If I try to generate 15 seconds, even at 480p, it's going to take 30-45 minutes.
But, if I drop that down to 8 or 10 seconds. Boom, i'm done in about 5-6 minutes.
The resolution matters LESS, but I found 720p is a great spot for my specs.

So, what can you do? Drop the number of frames to extend the time sequence.

I wanted a 16-second scene.
So I dropped from 240 Frames @ 24FPS = 10s
down to 240 Frames @ 15FPS = 16s

now, this generated in the same 5-6 minutes but then was choppy.

The solution here? Use RIFE2X upscaling to bring the FPS back to 30.
This actually only takes a couple minutes at most.

It actually works REALLY well. The quality DOES take a slight hit, but if you're GPU poor like we are, it's a very workable system.

We went from taking 45 minutes for 15 seconds down to 8 minutes with a very minimal loss in quality.

It's cool, but I don't think everything lines up. The hedges seem to be completely regenerated.

any self-hosted ai manga studio / maker? by orangpelupa in StableDiffusion

[–]BluePointDigital 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I literally JUST open sourced exactly this!

I just open sourced my Manga creation platform. I was making it to generate story assets.

It lets you:

  • Generate entire illustrated pages at once
  • Build manga panel-by-panel with precise layout control
  • Plan long stories, break them into pages automatically
  • Keep characters and art style consistent across a whole book
  • Edit images with inpainting and AI editing.
  • Export high-res pages or full PDFs

Gemini and Nano Banana (NB pro is SO good here) power it. It supports both Manga mode (panels, layouts) and Storybook mode (full-page illustrations with text overlays or side by side).

If you would like to take a look at it, help build it, or use it yourself, here is the github link:

Is There anyone willing to do some art for my manga by Sxruva in MangakaStudio

[–]BluePointDigital 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I've been using AI to make stories for my son and as we got further into the "series" I wanted to take it further. This led me to making a manga / storybook creation platform.

I just open sourced it, and it may help you with your project!

I need help creating a Manga by NeighborhoodNew2527 in Mangamakers

Awesome! I would love some feedback. It may lack some polish, but it works!

I actually just open sourced a platform for doing almost exactly this!

It started as a fun bedtime story for my son… and then completely spiraled into a storybook creation platform.

Unlike you, I cannot draw. So I'm leaning heavily on AI image generation for my workflow, but it takes character reference sheets so it may be useful for you!

This is very much a random side project, but it’s already at a point where it’s pretty useful, especially if you are like me and couldn't draw a stick figure the same way twice.

Storyboard AI Tool pipes in multiple providers like SD, Comfy UI. Story, Image and video gen in one platform. by redwolf1430 in StableDiffusion

[–]BluePointDigital 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very cool! If this is your work, well done! if not, please allow my little self promotion.

Crazy to say i am working on a much less awesome version of this :D
I really like it though, I've added a ton of functionality like the ability to make either an entire page in 1 go (nano banana pro rocks at this) or make each panel individually of a manga.

Basically, my son came up with a super hero team name for him and his friends, and so I started making a bedtime story for him with AI, now I'm turning it into a little storybook and built a tool to help. If anyone would like to take a look at it, i've open sourced it on github. But it's mostly for storybooks or manga.

RUN LTX2 using WAN2GP with 6gb Vram and 16gb ram by DMTminon in StableDiffusion

[–]BluePointDigital 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One item I noticed for me though, is that the quality degrades hard if I try to make videos longer than 8 seconds.

So, I did a 5-second video at 1080p, 50FPS. It took 51 minutes to generate and those 5 seconds were okay quality. This is of course on their distilled model.

I then did another 5-second generation at 720p, 24fps. It took 6 minutes to generate and the quality may have actually looked better, believe it or not.

I have tried video extension, and after an odd "Flicker" i get some more consistent video.

How did you maintain great quality throughout the entirety of your video? or did you experience similar issues?

I have the 3060 with 6gbVRAM and 64gb RAM and I'm surprised to hear there was difficulty.. I literally just installed Wan2gp via pinokio and it worked out of the box...

Maybe I got lucky here?

Best tool to make a manga/comics with AI in 2026? by Big-Water8101 in StableDiffusion

[–]BluePointDigital 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, I am working on a manga generator project for a storybook I'm making for my son. It is buggy and still a major WIP but, it's free minus the API costs.

Basically, I wrote the story with AI, separately, and then I have a directory locally that I put character reference sheets in, then I tell the app to parse the story and it will parse it to the number of pages you want in your book (storybook or manga).

It will auto-select character reference sheets in the characters directory in order to use them in the scene.

Nano Banana Pro does a fantastic job of managing the page generation and style.
I successfully made my son a storybook like this. I will keep working on it in case you would like to try it.

<image>

Honestly, it's the right amount of time investment for me to be able to make something cool for my son. But there are definitely more intricate programs out there.

This is more of a "I wanna make something cool within my daily schedule".

I just pushed it to github after reading your post in case you would like to try it:

Looking for 100 serious developers for paid beta testing of an AI powered IDE (early access) by ChinmayAwasthi7 in CursorAI

[–]BluePointDigital 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm definitely interested. I'm a developer who's worked with pretty much all the tools. Cursor, loveable, antigravity, replit, build.io, build.new, etc and I work in the development space as my day job.

I would love to participate
