Cannot load animate template

Custom Node Testing

Expected Behavior

I have installed ComfyUI and deployed all the custom nodes. I can load the templates normally. But there is a specific template which I could not load in my UI interface.

I have tried all ways, installed new envs, but failed. There is no error, no message, no change after open the json file. The file is mentioned as here

Expected was to open template, than I would have provided image and sample mp4 video to animate the image according to video, and of the same length as of video.

Actual Behavior

When I open the file, nothing happens.

Steps to Reproduce

Installed ComfyUI, installed custom nodes required for animate template. Started the ComfyUI server. Opened browser (tried firefox, Chrome) both but same response opened the template file

Nothing happens

Debug Logs

No response. Waitied several hours, waited over night but no response.

Other

No response

You mean, you clicked the template, but can't load the workflow?

@comfyui-wiki This happened to me only for this template. Maybe I am messing up something. If you can hint the mistake or ignorance.

@comfyui-wiki fixed it finally. Thank you. Just a request. If you can share the template which could have the animation node with options batch_images so that I can animate the same length of video with image as of input. ..?

Image @comfyui-wiki can you share this template json?

For this template, you can visit the cloud to download, and you can browse the cloud template without a subscription https://cloud.comfy.org/?template=video_wan2_2_14B_animate

@comfyui-wiki thank you. Is there any way to remove the cache saved for this type? As now I have new template and I know that template is correct. But when I load comfy, it still have old nodes. it seems. New comfyui has still no batch_image option. How to clear the cache so that I am sure that it takes new node consideration.

What cache? Could you make sure your ComfyUI is up to date? You could try using another browser or Incognito mode.

@comfyui-wiki great support !! billions of thank you. The point is for each json, I dont know why but I have to create the separate environments and which could separately works now.. This means, that same envs with same type of animation or content generation didnt work with even different json template.

Somehow the comfyui stores the previous used json and this shows previous workflow which was annoying. But the best thing is, the new ComfyUI is stable from git repo which was not the case previous days, weeks and months. Billions of thank you for immediate support. I can now with new envs load your above mentioned workflow.

Now i will try to generate video of same length and will update you if that worked exactly or need more help.

Image @comfyui-wiki if you can help little more. As you see, I have imported. But when I try to make ctrl+ V and than ctrl+shift+V it although copied, but didnt export any output. As maybe I don't know which video extend window needs additional copy before its extension link batch image output and video frame_offset. Little more help is still requested to extend its node for output generation.

For the native version, it's a bit tricky; you have to manually link the output to the input, as I have left in the previous comment.

The number of video extension groups depends on how long you want to generate.

For example, if you only need to generate a 5-second video, you will only need one KSampler.

If your input video is 10s long, then you can add one video extend group

TBH, the native version isn't user-friendly. I would recommend you use KJ's version, which will be easier for you to use this model

@comfyui-wiki Great thank you. animated upper example is a big help. If I have to make roughly 30 seconds video? and if for 60 seconds how this will get extended?
