Pins the sentinel contract, row uniqueness, and the equivalence between
dispatch_mode and the ladder it replaced. A row that declares neither a name
marker nor a mapped pipeline class now fails here instead of reaching a runner
that would generate it as text to video.
LTX generates 8n+1 frames and floors anything else internally, so a request
for 120 frames on the shared path silently produced 113. The tab has always
snapped the count before requesting it; the shared path now applies the same
rule, next to the width and height rounding it already did.
Both load buttons matched the dropdown value against the raw row list, so the
separators the list uses for grouping resolved to a row with no repo. The
loader returned early on that row without loading or reporting, and the ltx
tab went on to record load and offload timings for a load that never ran.
Selection now goes through models_def.find, which knows a separator names no
model, and both buttons say what happened. The ltx button had no output bound
at all, so its message went nowhere.
Two ladders decided how a model's inputs get wired, and they had drifted: the
api reported an unrecognized row as t2v while run() fell through to a branch
that wires nothing. Eight LTX condition rows sat in that gap, advertised as
text to video and generating without their conditioning.
dispatch_mode answers once from the row, reading name markers before the
pipeline class because one class serves several modes: six LTXConditionPipeline
rows are named T2V or I2V and generate as such. Rows that declare nothing now
resolve as condition, and the api reports that instead of guessing t2v.
The FP VAE dropdown defaulted to Local, which is not among its choices, so
the control rendered with an out-of-list value. The decode dispatch treats
anything unrecognized as Full, so Full is the value the default already
meant.
The nVidia Cosmos engine carried two byte-identical Predict2 2B I2V rows,
so the dropdown showed the name twice. The surviving row's url now points
at the Video2World repo it loads; it pointed at the Text2Image image model.
The tab held the only code that built video and audio references, sniffed the
file type itself, and dropped anything it did not recognize: an unknown
extension, a file that had gone missing, and any decode failure were all skipped
without a word, leaving a request that generated from fewer references than were
uploaded.
Reference marshalling now goes through the same funnel the api path uses, and
runs before the load, so a rejected file costs nothing and says which file and
why. The workflow comes from the registry row, which is where the loader reads
it from as well.
- a rejected input returns its reason to the output box, since the general
handler only reaches the log
- references uploaded against a keyframe workflow warn instead of vanishing:
the accordion hides on a row change but the files it held do not
- guard p.close() in the finally, which the model-not-loaded return has always
reached before p exists
A sweep only logged how long it took, so a config list holding candidates the
hardware runs badly stayed invisible until someone profiled a run that looked
hung. The completion listener already receives every candidate's timing, so the
spread between worst and best is free to report.
- log the winning config, the spread, and any candidates that could not run
- warn once per config when the selected one spills registers, naming it, since
the sweep line that carries it is debug
The shape branch read axis 1, which held the frame count back when animatediff
returned (batch, channels, frames, height, width). Diffusers now returns
(batch, frames, channels, height, width) and the modular video path puts
channels last, so axis 1 reads channels or height and the line printed a
plausible wrong number: a 124 frame 1024x576 generation logged frames=576.
len() is the frame count under both layouts and is what the sibling call site
in process_decode already uses.
parse_options reads : and , as separators and = as the only assignment, so a
segment without = becomes a valueless flag set to 1. The shipped strings used
ffmpeg command line spelling, which parses without error into other values.
- crf:16 parsed to {'crf': '1', '16': '1'}, encoding every api, framepack and
seedvr video near lossless rather than at crf 16
- crf=23:b:v=0 pinned the generic bitrate option to 1 bit per second on vp8 and
vp9, collapsing their output
- qscale:v=3 reached mpeg4 and mjpeg as nothing at all, replaced by an explicit
quantizer range
- test-video-codecs.py asserts every preset segment carries an assignment
The core took reference images only, so no api caller could send the video and
audio references the ref2va workflow conditions on, and the marshalling that
handles them existed solely in the MiniMax tab.
validate_references now gates on the workflow and hands the entries to the
architecture that owns them, which accepts decoded images and local file paths
in any mix and preserves their order, since order fixes the labels a prompt
addresses. reference_caps exposes the same limits the validation enforces, so a
client reads them instead of mirroring the numbers.
- MAX_IMAGE_REFERENCES is gone: the limits now cover all three kinds and a total
- the run body no longer builds reference objects or knows their class
- an image is converted where it is built rather than at the call site, so a
reference decoded from a file and one posted as base64 arrive the same way
- pipeline args summarize a reference list by kind, since a decoded video would
otherwise print its frames into the per-generation log line
- the video endpoint documents what it actually accepts: images alone, because
video and audio decode from files rather than from the wire, and an upload
reference only where an extension provides the store that resolves one
MiniMax-H3 conditions on image, video and audio references, and the limits it
enforces on them are constructor defaults on a block class the package does not
re-export, so they cannot be imported and are mirrored here instead.
The resolver takes decoded images and local file paths and returns the reference
objects the pipeline reads, checking cheapest first: classification and counts
open no files, container headers are read without decoding, and only then is the
media decoded. Everything runs before the model load, so a rejected request costs
nothing.
- reference limits as a frozen dataclass, keyed by workflow since the rows that
carry ref2va differ only in which repo they load
- media classification and container probing as generic video helpers
- a url is refused before construction: the reference classes fetch one and
decode whatever comes back
- a video is bounded by duration and by what it decodes to, since the pipeline
truncates it to the generated length and the decode is held across the load
- the frame floor is counted on the decoded video at the rate it resamples to,
which is what the conditioner measures
- torchaudio and av are checked up front rather than surfacing as an import
failure once the weights are resident
On ROCm, host-to-device DMA from mmap'd safetensors pages stalls ~1s per
copy, so weights move to the GPU at ~27 MB/s instead of ~28 GB/s. With
offload enabled this re-copies weights every forward, so generation
appears to hang.
Adds `diffusers_disable_mmap` (Settings > Model Loading), off by default,
which makes diffusers read shards into anonymous memory instead. Costs
peak RAM equal to the model size, so it is opt-in.
SD3.5-large on RX 9070 (gfx1201), same prompt and steps:
off: no image after 120s
on: image in 20s

The loader applied balanced offload directly, which places nothing when the
offload mode is not balanced, leaving every component on cpu where the load
parked it. The dispatcher places them under whichever mode is configured, and
the vae seams pair the balanced call with an on-demand sweep so the vae returns
to cpu once its outputs are materialized.
Static inventory of every registered pipeline: component classes come from
the init type annotations, the component specs on modular pipelines, and
the video model definitions, so the real role function runs against real
classes with no weights loaded. The audit prints the role of every
component, lists which components turn resident under the shipped 22 GB
never-offload default, names the custom pipelines it cannot see, and
asserts that no component carries an undecorated entry point, that
opted-out classes route on-demand, and that every pipeline places a
per-step component.
The offload section interleaved shared and mode-specific options. The
page now reads top down: general options, an Offload Overrides section
holding the exclusions shared by balanced and group offload, then one
tuning section per mode. Use torch streams becomes Prefetch with streams
and Record torch streams becomes Overlap stream transfers, the section
headers carry hints, and the hints reflect live behavior, including
dropping the model-reload badge from options that apply on change.
Offline suite for the placement roles: the role table over the component
names sdnext loads, one dispatch arm per component with hooks landing on
text encoder wrappers, force sweeps scoped to stamped modules, a settings
change re-placing a resident component, on-demand contracts, enumeration
on both pipeline kinds, and the upstream markers the roles read.
The mage vae defined plain encode and decode methods, leaving offload
hooks nothing to fire on when the pipeline enters through them. The
diffusers entry decorator routes both through the hook path, the same as
every stock autoencoder.
Group offload ignored the offload exclusion settings and its options took
effect only at the next model load. Components named by the never-offload
list or the model-type exclusion now stay resident on the accelerator,
with matching shared between the balanced hook and the group roles. The
offload options re-place loaded components when changed: group modes
re-run the placement pass, and balanced mode rebuilds its hook, which
snapshots the exclusion lists at construction.
