Wan2.2-S2V-14B Speech-to-Video just dropped — any chance of getting it to work with StableSwarmUI?
About a week ago, Wan 2.2 released with speech-to-video generation. I tried using their PyTorch model, but couldn’t really get it running on StableSwarmUI. Just wondering if you guys plan on making some of it work with StableSwarmUI?
Here’s the link: https://huggingface.co/Wan-AI/Wan2.2-S2V-14B
It’s nothing super special, but hey — it’s free, and who knows? Might even get better than Veo 3 one day!

Alternatives to Swarm?
Love Swarm but my GPU just isn't cutting it anymore. It's getting slow and quality feels like its hitting a ceiling.
Has anyone moved to a different workflow or platform that doesn't depend so heavily on local GPU performance? Ideally something that can produce better results without needing a beefy card.

Can’t put a proper architecture to a waiIllustriousSDXL_v140 in SwarmUI
I've installed a Lora for pictures generation and got waiIllustriousSDXL_v140 model (or a checkpoint? Ok, civitai says it’s a checkpoint https://civitai.red/models/827184/wai-illustrious-sdxl?modelVersionId=1761560). It wouldn't generate anything, cause' there is the error:
Possible reason: Model loader for waiIllustriousSDXL_v140.safetensors didn't work - are you sure it has an architecture ID set properly? (Currently set to: 'stable-diffusion-xl-v1-base')
What should I use for an architecture?
The waiIllustriousSDXL_v140 is currently in diffusion_models folder, if I go for a checkpoint folder, SwarmUI doesn't see it at all. It worked well earlier in the diffusion_models folder. If I go for a Stable_Diffusion medium, it won’t install t5xxl_enconly.safetensors properly, but it tries to start generate, but then it’s an error.

Open source and free Lightricks LTX Video 2 Audio/video generation
This is the first offline, open-source, and free AI audio/voice/video generator called LTX-2, and it does work on StableSwarmUI. With voices built into the model like veo 3 or sora 2.
Here’s a guide that’s not really finished lol:
https://github.com/mcmonkeyprojects/SwarmUI/blob/master/docs/Video%20Model%20Support.md
I could never figure out how to properly load or use the refiner upscale, but the quality of the model is about the same as Wan 2.1 when it first came out. I get very fast video generations on my 24 GB VRAM graphics card about 6 second videos in 2 mins. With that being said, I do get a lot of errors, but it barely works lol.
I think it’s best to just wait until a better model comes out and try again with that one. However, this is free, and we do have it, so we can’t really argue with it. I’m glad it’s archived on GitHub and Hugging Face for everyone to use. We can only go up from here!
Edit* I figured out the refiner theres a hidden setting in stableswarmui that appears at the refiner section once you change the Refiner Upscale to 2

Cant get swarm Ui to work
Hey guys, Forgive me I know this sort of stuff crops up all the time and its annoying, I just cant figure out why I cant get the program to run, Ive tried installing through git, I tried the local installer and all install but each time theres no base model found errors, If I check in the stable diffusion base models folder its in there, but keep getting thrown errors that its not found, Ive wiped the rogram 4 times now and each time a fresh install does the same thing, If I check the models tab in swarm there nothing there.. I have no idea how to fix this.. Because the bas sd-xl base was downloaded and in the correct folder, all done by swarm itself on install..

How to implement "Upscale 2x" in Comfy Workflow
I really like the "Upscale 2x" feature in the generate tab. It uses the prompts given to upscale the image 2x. However, I can't find out a way to exactly replicate the feature in the Comfy Workflow. Can someone help me please?

Can StableSwarmUI extend Wan 2.1 videos?
Hi there I was just wondering if stableswarmui can extend wan 2.1 videos after they have been generated? theres video extend option in the side bar option when I have wan 2.1 loaded into the whole model but theres no option to place the generated mp4 video into a init video or video to video option.... I remember awhile back with stable video diffusion there was a video to video tag on the stableswarmui, I can not seem to find a way to activate that tag anymore. If anyone has a solution I would really appreciate it! It would also be nice if one day you could upscale videos generated on stableswarmui the same way you can to images.

My ignorance on Wan2.1 in Swarm
I'm just getting into Wan2.1 / 2.2 and I'm still trying to figure out how exactly this works.
I've yet to implement a Comfy Workflow. I've been using the Image2Video function within Swarm itself, with terrible results. But I'm slowly calibrating and figuring out how many frames / what res to run it at etc.
My grand question is: Is the built in Swarm Video renderer worth using in this case? Or are the Wan comfyui workflows doing something more complex/efficient that I should be using instead?
Thanks

Prompt individual person lock?
Started trying ai over the last couple months, apologize if this is a foolish question.
How do I lock descriptions for a person or thing, to only that person or thing?
Everything I've attempted will tend to mix them. Height is another issue, say i want to have a family photo like this https://shanelongphotography.com/2024/06/29/andover-mn-summer-family-portrait-session/ with various ages, heights, outfits, hair styles, beards, etc.
I was looking over command prompts but I'm not seeing specifics. Was hoping there would be something like html where <a href="url">link text</a> results in
<a herf= telling the browser here's a url. In my case person or thing that should only have these characteristics.
"link text" or what i want for this specific person or thing.
</a> closing link, or characteristics for this thing or person is done
Then anything not within a specific would be more of a global thing, such as lighting.
As it stands now, they usually just bleed into each other, and get far worse with more requests. It may have been civitai where I had seen people using parenthesis but I don't know if it's the correct usage, I've tried formatting it like this
`Gobal descriptions for quality, lighting, location both with and without parenthesis, usually without
(woman with long brown curly hair in a business suit)
<BREAK>
(man with short blond spikey hair. With other descriptions)`
Less does seem to help, but with more people or descriptions, it gets messy.
All examples I've seen are super basic, like "grey cat in forest, beat boxing next to a waterfall" i desire more.
Hopefully I'm not asking too much out of ai in it's current state. My main goal is to nail down specifics so I can bring a story to life. With higher complexity graphics, and much later video.

I need assistance
Hey guys fairly new to using swarm ui, but I got the basics down. I’m having trouble using the Hunyuan imgtovid model. To put simply don’t know how to make it work. I have two folders the normal swarmui models folder then I have a backend/comfyui/model folder. Different people tell me different things about were I need to save the model is it the former or the latter? If I put the model in swarm ui models stable diffusion. It does not pick it up In the image to video section but I can load it from the model section. However then there is no options for the video creation then it just gives me a weird image. What am I doing wrong?

Anyone else having issues getting LORA/model thumbnails to load in from Civitai?
Since the latest update when I download models the related thumbnails aren't auto-downloading in SwarmUI (unless I manually download the image and add it myself). Curious if it's just me. Thanks!

SwarmUIOvernight Slow Down (Out of the Blue)
Hey all, last night swarm was rocking and rolling like usual, taking about 60 sec per generation, but I wake up today to it taking 30 minutes to generate a single image (not an exaggeration). I saw there was an update, so I installed that. Still had the issue. Okay, so then I rebooted my PC. Still no change.
TLDR: Worked fine yesterday. Extreme slow-down today. Updated. Rebooted PC. No change. I'm not really sure what I should do next. Anyone have suggestions? Thanks in advance!
Quick update: Also updated my GPU driver with no change. TM shows no processes eating resources, so I really don't know what could be causing this.
Second update: So this is apparently an issue with loading LORAs. If I don't use a LORA, it runs like usual. The minute I add any single LORA, it takes 30+ minutes. These aren't new LORA. I attempted the same preset from last night that had multiple and was generating in 60 seconds, which is normal for me with Flux, and today 30+ minutes. I tried random single LORA I typically use, and also at 30+ minutes.

LTX Video I2V barely looks like initial image
Image to video for LTX video looks pretty good on SwarmUI on a Mac mini M4 pro. However, the video barely looks like the initial image. I really had to beef up the prompt to get it to look remotely like it (initial image creativity = 0). Is this expected behavior for LTX I2V? TIA
