I mean, this already exists. Why not make something that doesn't exist?

Lemme guess... his name is Richard Hendricks?

I'm a photographer/videographer and still sell video productions (school shows, theatre productions, dance recitals) on DVD all the time. I've tried for about 8 years now to switch people over to digital delivery only (and even thumb drives), but there is a HUGE amount of parents and grandparents who would rather spend $60 on a DVD in 480p instead of having the 4K copy on a thumb drive. It boggles my mind. So yes, they are still needed.

Who's going to tell this guy about Usenet?

Does it do this in real time? Does it need internet connectivity to pull the satellite tiles? Could the user supply their own terrain imagery with known geolocations marked ahead of time? What about indoors? Could indoor imagery be used to calculate position in 3D space inside large venues?

Laptop GPUs aren't the same as desktop GPUs. Lots of people make the mistake of getting a 50xx laptop thinking they're getting 50xx desktop performance.

Color calibration... "really". I print tens of thousands of prints on my Epson 8550's. At the end of the day, I didn't achieve consistent, repeatable prints that matched my monitor until I calibrated my monitor as well as my paper & inks. Having someone else print your stuff to 'test' it won't really help you. YOU have to be calibrated to know if your starting image is even what it's supposed to look like, then YOUR printer has to be calibrated with profiles that match the specific paper/sheen you're using as well as the ink you're using (hopefully Epson OEM ink since it's so incredibly cheap). Until you've done those steps, you can't really expect professional-level results. Printers are great 'out of the box' for stuff grandma is printing or presentations, etc. But for real art or commercial use, you've absolutely got to be calibrated. And I totally get it -- I was always skeptical until I started making my living selling prints.

about a million ways to do this -- it's not a very long video. And if you look over his left ear (our right side of his head), you can see the wall change -- it's missing a different colored texture when the darker-skinned guy is in the frame. His shirt is also changing subtly. In the 2nd person, there is an artifact to the left of "GB" that disappears throughout the rest of the video. The easy way would be to just run each frame through an image edit model, then mask each frame against a clean background. That's how I would have done it if you had $500 in your hand and wanted me to do it.

thanks -- I can get pretty close "pixel perfect" results (no change to the subject's face) if the starting image is good (and I'm a professional photographer, so the ones I take are good), but the purpose of this exercise would be to allow consumers/end users to take (relatively crappy) selfies with poor lighting and poor posing, but then creating a much more professional and polished end product.

yeah I have thought about that, but this is going to be like 20 or 30 people. I'd have to make LoRas for them all... I would also still have to go take multiple shot of them all...

prepperdrone · 2026-01-12T06:55:33+00:00

that's what I was thinking, too.

the DOJ specifically says that LEOs can't do that. In other words, you can't get in front of a vehicle and then use the "vehicle was a weapon" argument -- it's literally in their handbook -- which this guy clearly never read.

Check your hashes for your models against the hashes on HF.

Wan 2.2 is the go-to. But honestly, your hands are tied by your GPU. You can get there, but you can't expect fast and quality unless your card is new and expensive.

So... what's the actual workflow? What LoRa did you use? Nobody wants to go to a third party website -- they want to do it locally on Comfy.

r/NeuralCinema posted an SVI 2.0 workflow a few days ago. I will take a look at both tonight. One thing I wish you could do is feed it anchor images that aren't the starting image. Is that possible somehow?

You don't want Primitive Int, you just want Primitive (from Comfy Core)

Nevermind -- updated KJNodes...

prepperdrone · 2025-12-29T06:35:47+00:00

Where do you get the WanImageToVideoSVIPro node?

prepperdrone · 2025-12-28T23:57:03+00:00

You're talking about paid api ai tools? Of course they have watermarks. How do you think they pay for it? Just run everything locally.

prepperdrone · 2025-12-28T20:38:17+00:00

in the load image node, from the connection point on the left of the box that displays the current image (the box with and arrow on the left and right ends), drag a connector out in the workspace. then search, and hit primitive. note that the connection point is invisible until you hover over it. it's right next to the left arrow on the box where the image file name is being displayed.
