WAS Node Suite Warning: `ffmpeg_bin_path`

Open lunatico67 opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

WAS Node Suite Warning: ffmpeg_bin_path is not set in C:\Users\Luna\Documents\ComfyUI_windows_portable\ComfyUI\custom_nodes\was-node-suite-comfyui\was_suite_config.json config file. Will attempt to use system ffmpeg binaries if available.

How can solve it?

It's very my friend. I suspect you're on Windows:

  • Stop comfy
  • First you need ffmpeg - plently of options but https://www.gyan.dev/ffmpeg/builds/#git-master-builds offers a simple package.
  • Download ffmpeg-git-essentials.7z from that site
  • Install 7z if you don't have it (https://7-zip.org/)
  • Unzip the file you downloaded to any location, i place my in my C:/ drive.
  • Edit \ComfyUI_windows_portable\ComfyUI\custom_nodes\was-node-suite-comfyui\was_suite_config.json
  • In there find the line that says " "ffmpeg_bin_path": "/path/to/ffmpeg",
  • Change the path to your location you unziped the bins in - for example "ffmpeg_bin_path": "C:\ffmpeg_14_feb_2024\bin",
  • Make double sure you typed the path correctly (see above)
  • Restart

Done!

Hi Stephan, sorry for the super delay in my reply, I just saw it now. Thanks a million, problem solved, the error no longer appears. I had the ffmpeg package installed on my computer but I didn't have it addressed in was_suite_config.json as you showed me.

This is how I did it:

First I installed this with winget, and then set the path like this (see double slash) in windows.

"ffmpeg_bin_path": "C:\\Users\\Optim\\AppData\\Local\\Microsoft\\WinGet\\Packages\\Gyan.FFmpeg_Microsoft.Winget.Source_8wekyb3d8bbwe\\ffmpeg-7.0.1-full_build\\bin",

If it's not set it attempts to use the system ffmpet, assuming path is in env path var. Which ffmpeg installer doesn't do, so most people get this issue.
