@shura490 Sorry, I was typing a comment but thought I never send it! lol
Looking amazing though, really want to run this locally, but never tried comfy yet. >.<
So guess that's the next thing on my list. Is comfy "safe" to use these days?

@shura490 Yes, very much so. I've seen a bunch of videos about how comfy got malicious code injected almost a year ago, so I've been avoiding it ever since just to stay on the safe side. So hoping you can shed some light on that.

@c666d Comfy itself should be safe but if you install nodes from Manager you really should vet their source(that's how it happened before). Understand that those nodes are fully capable of running any command on your machine with whatever privileges Comfy has since they are little python programs of their own. There absolutely are people creating malware to attack generative AI users and devs because a lot of people are really not fond of anything to do with generative AI for various reasons. You're right to be cautious, but you don't have to exclude yourself from the fun!

If you want to be extra safe, don't use Comfy Manager and just manage your venv and custom nodes yourself. Then you can poke through their source codes to make sure everything is on the up and up before using anything. You could even use a firewall or access control to prohibit Comfy's ability to access the Internet entirely except for localhost (e.g. the 127.0.0.1 you connect to in browser). Or don't use Comfy at all, I do most of my work these days in Musubi Tuner ( https://github.com/kohya-ss/musubi-tuner/ ) which has inference and training support for Wan, Hunyuan, and Framepack. I've actually extended it quite a bit to bring features like VFI, upscaling, faster inference, prettier logging, prompt weighting, extended saving options and more ( https://github.com/Sarania/musubi-tuner ) it's currently all CLI, there are some UI but I don't have experience with them(I am working on my own though). It has the benefit of being entirely offline while being fully open source with all the code in a single place. So that's an option you can consider too. Please feel free to look at the code directly and ensure it's not up to anything suss!

But anyway ultimately it's like any other piece of software you install on your computer. Some of the most advanced malware these days is written in python. It's not a good idea to install 20 different programs from unknown sources all at once without vetting the code, but that's exactly what you're doing when you use ComfyUI Manager to "install missing nodes" on a large, complex workflow!

I will note that they HAVE taken steps to mitigate an attack like what happened before. I do sometimes use Comfy manager, but I still vet the code underneath to make sure it's not up to anything suspicious. So all that is to say - I think you're right to be cautious, but you don't have to be so paranoid that you get left out!

@shura490 great. Thank you

Did you remember to set it to 720p?
