🚫AnimateDiff Combine [DEPRECATED, Use Video Combine (VHS) Instead!] 🎭🅐🅓

Documentation

  • Class name: ADE_AnimateDiffCombine
  • Category: ``
  • Output node: True

This node is designed for combining multiple animation sequences or frames into a single, cohesive animation. It focuses on integrating various elements of animation to create a unified and seamless experience.

Input types

Required

  • images
    • The images input consists of a sequence of frames that are to be combined into a single animation. It plays a crucial role in determining the content and visual flow of the final animation output.
    • Comfy dtype: IMAGE
    • Python dtype: List[Image.Image]
  • frame_rate
    • Specifies the playback speed of the combined animation in frames per second. This parameter influences the temporal aspect of the animation, affecting how smoothly it plays.
    • Comfy dtype: INT
    • Python dtype: int
  • loop_count
    • Determines the number of times the animation will loop. This affects the duration and replayability of the final animation.
    • Comfy dtype: INT
    • Python dtype: int
  • filename_prefix
    • A prefix for the filename under which the animation will be saved. It aids in organizing and identifying the output files.
    • Comfy dtype: STRING
    • Python dtype: str
  • format
    • Defines the file format of the output animation. This choice impacts compatibility and quality.
    • Comfy dtype: COMBO[STRING]
    • Python dtype: List[str]
  • pingpong
    • A boolean indicating whether the animation should play forwards and then backwards, creating a seamless loop effect.
    • Comfy dtype: BOOLEAN
    • Python dtype: bool
  • save_image
    • Controls whether the final animation is saved to disk. This parameter is essential for persisting the output for later use.
    • Comfy dtype: BOOLEAN
    • Python dtype: bool

Optional

  • deprecation_warning
    • Provides a warning that this node is deprecated and suggests using an alternative node for similar functionality.
    • Comfy dtype: ADEWARN
    • Python dtype: str

Output types

  • gif
    • Comfy dtype: GIF
    • The output is a GIF animation combining the input frames according to the specified parameters.
    • Python dtype: File

Usage tips

  • Infra type: CPU
  • Common nodes: unknown
