Note:
This model is quantized in GGUF format. Choose the version that fits your GPU VRAM:
Q4_K_M → about 10–12 GB VRAM (balanced)
Q5_K_S → about 14–16 GB VRAM (recommended for mid-range GPUs)
Q6_K → about 20 GB or more VRAM (highest quality)

Thx for the workflow, not really done much video as I only have 12 Gb vram but I got it working. Half an hour for a 3 second video tough. Also, how do I remove the input image from the video? It always show the input image first and then fades to the video
Hey this was an issue that just disappeared for me after a few updates. I have a brand new update coming though and it doesent have the issue at all.
You've shoved one of the most important settings into a subgraph. That's not what subgraphs are for, dude. 🤦
Could you explain that to me and how i can make it better? (noob myself)
Hey yeah I do realize that working on a update right now with With a looping mechanism for infinite length generation and I have put the points editor out of the detection subgraph if that's what you meant.
I get a VHS failure to extract audio error. I have updated the nodes to the latest and I'm still getting errors. Does anyone have any ideas?

probably your video doesnt have audio, disconnect audio links and give it a try
@suraneither I did that first off. but I found another workflow that worked well with less problems. I will come back to this workflow just to see if I can get it working and compare. thanks for the reply.
@suraneither this
what loras are compatible with wan animate? like nsfw for example
