Wow! I was almost ready to get my pc working ( which would be a total rabbithole in itself ), I am so glad you shared these steps with us. HUGE appreciation!!!

You. Are. Amazing. The instructions they give are so complicated. You made it super easy

You are a legend! I learned so much about terminal commands alone from this video, regardless of your effortless comfyUI installation guide. THANK YOU

Great. Thanks. I think I recorded as much for KZread as I did to have a reference for myself again in the future . . Enjoy the learning journey... it's pretty endless.

Incredible instructions - thank you so much for the very clear step by step guide. Absolute hero!

This was the most clear and concise tutorial for getting this running. Thank you!

This is definitely the best tutorial I ever seen. Thank you so much!

just went through this step by step and it worked exactly as needed- thank you so much!

Amazing man, really fast walktrough!! Got it working first go.

Thank you. You made this significantly easier than it would have been with other guides.

Thank you very much. I had an incomplete of ComfyUI and it worked in some cases but not in others. This video helped a lot.👍

Cool, glad to hear. So much to learn and try out once it's up and running, with Comfy UI manager, custom nodes, models, VAE's, Loras. But a lot of fun in a really evil hard work kinda way.

This is awesome! It fixed my problems with loading some custom_nodes. Thank you so much sir!

I love your channel and tutorials, and now I have ComfyUI on my Mac. I hope you do make some intricate AI animation workflow tutorials using ComfyUI!

Thank you for showing me is such detail ! I loved the way you demonstrated dragging the folder over to terminal to get the URL correctly. I always have had trouble on OSX with finding the address of a file. Very irritating. You made it so easy.

Thank you for quick and easy to implement tutorial. Good job!

great explanation! thank you ... I have tried to install the comfy MANAGER, and it runs ... :) but when I tried to install the nodes for "video combine" I missed the codecs I have on my pc: h264 and h265 and prores ... I only have gif and webp output options here on my m2 mac ... do u have an idea what I have to do? I assume I have to install ffmpeg ... cuz the codecs are in the directory //as josn files ... thx in advance for any help :)

@AIAnimationStudio

8 ай бұрын

Yeah that'll be related to ffmpeg. Getting that installed should solve it. Just restart ComfyUI once done. I just shared another video, which runs through running ComfyUI in the cloud via Vast. Essentially renting some 4090 GPUs. Whether you need that or not, the code used could be used locally for getting ComfyUI setup with models, custom nodes, etc etc. Might be useful. 👍

Is it working also on the older MacBooks Pro without M chips, please?

Great help. Will it be the same with a i7 mac?

10/10

what's system requirements, how much gb need for complete installation

Could you also do do one installing ComfyUI Manager on mac? Would be so helpful, im stuck here now!

glad you got it working. Yeah I might do a follow up soon. Plus one setting it up in the cloud so Mac users (or anyone) can rent multiple high end gpus to massively speed up generation.

thanks for your video! I noticed that you have a Stable diffusion webui folder, I have it also. I wonder if the models does work for comfy.

Awesome, thank you for the video! This is the most helpful video I've ever seen. Quick question: I downloaded sdxl model file and put it to checkpoint path. However, the generation rate is fairly slow which seems running on my CPU instead of M1/M2 chip. Might you know how to leverage my M1 chip by any chance? Thanks again!

@AIAnimationStudio

7 ай бұрын

Thanks very much. Quite a lot I could cover here. I'd recommend you checkout the new Pytorch Lora which can greatly increase generation speeds.(or even SD Turbo model which is going to evolve and get better and better) Also I think at the moment Nvidia PCs are better able to produce things more quickly. But with the right workflow setup I'm getting good speeds on my Mac.

@@AIAnimationStudio Thank you for your kind reply. Do you have any suggestions about how to use M1 chip in ComfyUI? os.environ['CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES'] = str(args.cuda_device) I can see this line in the main file which might be related. Thank you so much!

Thanks for this, was easy to follow. Just wondering what people’s render times are for image and animation on the M2 Mac’s? Like how long on average would a 512x512 image take to generate? Thanks

@AIAnimationStudio

8 ай бұрын

It varies a lot depending on the Sampler settings, CFG scale and steps. I'll try and share some times soon for an M2 , mac, but for a still image, it's pretty quick at 512 x 512. The newly released PyTorch Lora can MASSIVELY speed up generations, too. I shared a new video today about setting up ComfyUI on a rented GPU (or 8 GPUs). Which includes a Workflow with the new Lora included in the process. Which unlocks much faster generations and high-resolution output without the VRAM issues Mac Users are currently hitting.

EDIT: The best fix for crashing on an M1 Mac is to use Chrome. Don't use Safari. Leaving my previous comment because it still is the solution for being able to use masks. For anyone having crashing issues on an M1 Mac. I accidentally stumbled upon a fix. I couldn't get masks to work for which the solution is running the following in the terminal before you run the two main terminal commands: export PYTORCH_ENABLE_MPS_FALLBACK=1 Apparently it forces the Mac to default to the CPU. I started to notice that whenever it was in this mode it wouldn't crash and if it did it would crash after a long time. Whereas before it would often crash after just a few generations.

I get this error when running the last step ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'torch'

Hello, are you guys experiencing long render time with SDXL checkpoints? I have an M2, on SD 1.5 based checpoint it generates images very fast, though i believe controlnet only work on SDXL checkpoints. Let me know if you guys have this issue also. Cheers!

How fast can macbook pro m3 generate ai art sdxl or 1.5? Can you do a benchmark comparison? Im worried of buying an m3 because SD only works good on nvidia gpus
