Source description

Plenty of people still don't know how to run I2V with Wan2.1, so here's the bare-bones Image-to-Video workflow—it's the standard template, barely tweaked—to help anyone stuck on weak hardware or still hunting for a basic starting point.

The reason why the sample video is stuck is that I only set the video frame rate to 4 frames in order to get a higher sample resolution and longer video length.

My poor potato computer! If you set the frame rate to at least 16 or 20 or 24, you can get a smooth video.

AI-generated commentary

AI-generated explanation based on source and configuration details. Suggestions are clearly labeled.

Purpose

  • Use this workflow to turn an image into a Wan2.1 video with the Wan Video 14B i2v 480p model; it is presented as a bare-bones starting point, including for people using weak hardware.

Flow

  • Its listed requirements connect it to the Comfy-Org/Wan_2.1_ComfyUI_repackaged model and to ComfyUI for ModelSamplingSD3.

Inputs and outputs

  • Start with an image; the description presents a video as the output. Listed nodes include LoadImage and VHS_VideoCombine.

Setup

  • Find it on Civitai under “Wan2.1 image to video_LowVram_gguf_Simple” by SamLiu.

Dependencies

  • Listed model files: clip_vision_h.safetensors, umt5_xxl_fp8_e4m3fn_scaled.safetensors, wan_2.1_vae.safetensors, and wan2.1-i2v-14b-480p-Q4_0.gguf.

  • Listed nodes include CLIPLoader, CLIPTextEncode, CLIPVisionEncode, CLIPVisionLoader, KSampler, LoadImage, and ModelSamplingSD3.

  • Also listed: Power Lora Loader (rgthree), UnetLoaderGGUF, VAEDecode, VAELoader, VHS_VideoCombine, and WanImageToVideo.

Configuration

  • The author says the sample uses frame rate 4 to get higher sample resolution and a longer video.

  • For smoother video, try a frame rate of 16, 20, or 24, as the author suggests.

    Suggestion · not verified

Cautions

  • The listed GGUF file has no provider specified, so confirm where to obtain it before setup.
