Video Depth Extractor VDA + DepthCrafter

AI-KSK ComfyUI workflow: Video Depth Extractor VDA + DepthCrafter.

This workflow is the dual-route video depth extractor: it takes any source video and outputs a depth-map video, with two interchangeable routes in the same graph - Video Depth Anything (VDA) and DepthCrafter. It is a pure extraction pipeline with no generative model, so it runs fast and the output is a clean monochrome depth sequence you can feed into any depth-guided generation workflow.

Main features:
- Dual depth-extraction routes in one graph: Video Depth Anything (VDA) and DepthCrafter
- No generative model: pure monocular depth estimation, low VRAM footprint
- Input video is resized to about 1MP with lanczos before estimation
- Depth map exported as MP4 via VHS video combine, ready to use as a control signal

Suggested workflow:
Use this workflow to prepare depth control videos for structure-transfer tasks. Pick VDA for general scenes and switch to the DepthCrafter route when you need its motion-preserved depth behavior. Keep the source video steady and well-lit: depth estimation quality follows the source footage, and flickering input produces flickering depth.
