Hey! 🚀

Here’s my new killer workflow that’s been giving me insane results – super chill & easy to follow. Let’s go!

⚡ NVIDIA DRIVER ALERT

If you’ve got an NVIDIA GPU, install the Studio Driver 551.23 (not the latest Game Ready one). The newest gaming driver gave me tons of AI bugs – Automatic1111 wouldn’t even generate images sometimes.

👉 Download here: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/details/218500/

🎨 MODELS (High & Low)

Grab them from CivitAI: 🔗 https://civitai.com/models/1981116/dasiwa-wan-22-i2v-14b-lightspeed

Put them in ComfyUI’s checkpoints folder:

• dasiwa_wan_22_i2v_14b_lightspeed_high.safetensors → models/checkpoints/

• dasiwa_wan_22_i2v_14b_lightspeed_low.safetensors → models/checkpoints/

🧠 VAE

wan_2.1_vae.safetensors → models/vae/ 👉 https://huggingface.co/Comfy-Org/Wan_2.1_ComfyUI_repackaged/blob/main/split_files/vae/wan_2.1_vae.safetensors

🧩 CLIP

umt5_xxl_fp8_e4m3fn_scaled.safetensors → models/clip/ 👉 https://huggingface.co/chatpig/encoder/blob/main/umt5_xxl_fp8_e4m3fn_scaled.safetensors

⚙️ REQUIREMENTS

• FFmpeg installed & in your system PATH Test it: open CMD/PowerShell → type:

  bash

  ffmpeg -version

  If it works → you’re golden. If not → follow the steps below.

🚀 STEP 1: Download FFmpeg

Go to the official static builds: 🔗 https://www.gyan.dev/ffmpeg/builds/

Click "ffmpeg-git full build" (recommended) or grab the latest .zip.

Example: ffmpeg-git-full.7z or ffmpeg-git-full.zip

Download it to your Downloads folder.

📦 STEP 2: Extract the Files

Use 7-Zip (recommended) or Windows built-in extractor.

No 7-Zip? → Get it here: https://www.7-zip.org/

Right-click the downloaded file → Extract to "ffmpeg-git-..."

You’ll get a folder like: ffmpeg-git-2025xxxx-full_build

Rename it to just ffmpeg → move it to:

text

C:\ffmpeg

Final path: C:\ffmpeg\bin\ffmpeg.exe

🛠️ SCRIPT: Setup-FFmpeg-NoAdmin.ps1 (included in attachments)

Prerequisites:

• You already extracted the FFmpeg folder (e.g., ffmpeg-git-2025...-full_build)

• It has a bin subfolder with ffmpeg.exe, ffprobe.exe, etc.

• You’ll move it to C:\ffmpeg (or change the path)

HOW TO USE (step-by-step)

1. Open the script in Notepad.

2. Edit this line:

   powershell

   $sourceFolder = "C:\path\to\your\ffmpeg-git-xxxxxx-full_build"

   → Example:

   powershell

   $sourceFolder = "C:\Users\YourName\Downloads\ffmpeg-git-20250401-full_build"

3. Save the edited script.

4. Run it:

   • Right-click → "Run with PowerShell"

   • OR open PowerShell (no admin) and run:

     powershell

     .\Setup-FFmpeg-NoAdmin.ps1

Result

• FFmpeg at: C:\Users\YourName\ffmpeg\bin\ffmpeg.exe

• Available just for you (no admin needed)

• Works in CMD, PowerShell, VS Code, etc.

• Doesn’t affect other users

Test it

Open a new terminal and type:

bash

ffmpeg -version

→ Should work instantly! 🎉

🧬 CUSTOM NODES (install via CMD + git clone)

Manager sometimes fails due to permissions – CMD is more reliable.

bash

🎬 WORKFLOW ORIGIN

Based on Dasiwa’s original: 🔗 https://civitai.com/models/1823089

I stripped out everything not needed for img2video – so no node overload for the easily confused (like me 😂).

💡 PURPLE NODE = "BYPASSED"

That purple node you see? It’s bypassed (ignored by ComfyUI). → Right-click → "Bypass" to disable a LoRA → Right-click again → "Unbypass" to enable it

Check the example video if needed.

🐛 "Missing VAE/Model" Bug?

Sometimes ComfyUI complains even if files are there. Fix:

1. Change the VAE/model to something else

2. Switch it back → forces reload → problem gone

See the fix video.

➕ Add More LoRAs?

Follow the video.

• High Noise LoRAs → connect to High model

• Low Noise LoRAs → connect to Low model → I color-coded them so you don’t get lost.

🎨 Pro Tip: Reuse PNG Info

I load the PNG info from the image I want to animate, then tweak the prompt.

Install the PNG Info Sidebar: 🔗 https://github.com/KLL535/ComfyUI_PNGInfo_Sidebar

Install: Go to your custom_nodes folder → open CMD in the address bar → run:

bash

git clone https://github.com/KLL535/ComfyUI_PNGInfo_Sidebar

Done! 📋

Everything else is in the workflow notes. Hope this helps you make epic videos!
