Image Studio v0.3.0 (Video Studio with LTX-Video 2.3 & Native Player)

Image Studio v0.3.0 - Video Studio & Native Media Player

Major Milestone: High-Fidelity AI Video Generation

Image Studio now includes a dedicated Video Studio mode powered by Lightricks LTX-Video 2.3 (22B Dev FP8) alongside the existing Qwen Image 2.1 photo editor.

Key Video Studio Capabilities:

• Text-to-Video & Image-to-Video: Generate stunning, fluid motion from natural language prompts or start from any input picture.
• Integrated Audio Synthesis & Upscaling: Built-in audio latent generation and spatial 2x latent upscaler for crystal-clear fidelity.
• Cinematic Gemma 3 12B Prompt Enhancer: Optional deep cinematic prompt expansion using local Gemma 3 with custom LTXLoRA guidance.
• Flexible Aspect & Resolution Controls: Presets for Fast/Low-Res (360p, 480p), Standard (720p), and High-Res (1080p, 1440p, 4K) with an aspect ratio scaling slider.
• Native Embedded Video Player: Pure Rust video player powered by OpenH264 decoding and Rodio audio output rendered directly to egui textures. Features full-width scrub bar, playback speed toggles (0.25x - 2.0x), and frame-by-frame stepping.
• Multi-Shot Sequential Continuation: Scrub to any frame in a generated video and instantly promote it as the starting frame for your next shot.

Performance & Engine Upgrades:

• Full VRAM Unlocked: Removed artificial buffer allocations so ComfyUI dynamic memory manager (comfy-aimdo) operates at maximum throughput with zero unnecessary PCIe stalls.
• Multi-Mirror Downloader: Automated multi-source downloading across HuggingFace, ModelScope, and hf-mirror with live speed tracking and automatic stall recovery.

Image Studio v0.2.10 (Hotfix: Model Re-Download & VRAM Cache)

Image Studio v0.2.10 (Hotfix: Model Re-Download & VRAM Cache)

Fixes & Improvements in v0.2.10:

• Prevent Unnecessary Model Re-Downloads:
  • Existing installs that already have weights downloaded (e.g. qwen3vl_8b_int8_convrot.safetensors) now automatically preserve the standard INT8 profile instead of falling through to the 8GB profile.
  • Profile ordering in models.json set to default standard INT8 (12GB+) first.
  • Added robust detection of existing models across all candidate directories before picking a profile.
  • Fresh installs on <= 8GB GPUs will automatically select the 8GB quant profile; existing installs on 12GB+ VRAM or prior versions never re-download.
• VRAM Detection Caching:
  • Cached GPU VRAM query (nvidia-smi) in a OnceLock so it executes only once at startup instead of running on every UI render frame.
• Canonical Windows Path Separators:
  • Fixed mixed slash formatting in default candidate path joins (ComfyUI-Shared/models -> ComfyUI-Shared\models).

Image Studio v0.2.9 (8GB VRAM Profiles, Immediate UI Launch & Large Image Fix)

Image Studio v0.2.9

What's New in v0.2.9:

• Large Image Upload Fix:
  • Fixed Error: upload reply: error decoding response body when adding high-resolution images (e.g. 14,000px+, 25MB+).
  • Reference images are intelligently scaled to a maximum of 2048px (preserving aspect ratio), preventing aiohttp 100MB body limit rejections (HTTP 413) and vision transformer CUDA OOM.
  • Base images are scaled to max 4096px (diffusion ceiling and GPU texture limit).
  • Explicit HTTP response error reporting in comfy::upload.
• 8GB VRAM Quantized Models & Hardware Auto-Detection:
  • Added Qwen Image 2.1 (8GB VRAM - W4A8 Quant) profile utilizing 4-bit quantized text encoder (qwen3vl_8b_w4a8.safetensors, 6.31GB) to prevent CUDA Out Of Memory crashes on 8GB GPUs.
  • Added Turbo 8-Step (8GB VRAM) profile for accelerated inference.
  • Automatic GPU VRAM detection: systems with <= 8GB VRAM automatically select the 8GB profile, while systems with 12GB+ use the standard profile.
  • Profile switcher in the Setup & diagnostics window allows manual selection with automatic weight downloading.
• Immediate Main UI Launch & Non-Blocking Startup:
  • The full main UI and hero canvas are now shown immediately upon launch when starting the engine (no blocking setup card).
  • Top-right header shows non-intrusive status (Starting engine...).
  • Users can immediately drop/paste images and type prompts; if generation is requested before engine readiness, prompts are seamlessly queued and execute the moment the engine finishes booting.

Image Studio v0.2.8 (Storage Migration, OOM Recovery, Live Aspect Preview & Updater)

Image Studio v0.2.8

What's New in v0.2.8:

• Off-C: Drive Storage & Migration:
  • Ability to choose an installation / model weight storage directory on another drive (e.g. D:\ImageStudio\models) during first setup without blocking active downloads.
  • One-click storage migration tool in the Setup window to seamlessly relocate ~17GB of model files off C: drive.
• Engine Crash Failsafe & OOM Protection:
  • Supervisor now cleanly handles runtime process exits / CUDA Out-of-Memory crashes by restarting the existing instance (up to 5 retries) instead of redundantly re-downloading a fresh 1.5GB engine archive.
  • Enabled PyTorch memory allocator flags (PYTORCH_CUDA_ALLOC_CONF=expandable_segments:True) and --reserve-vram 1.5 to minimize memory fragmentation.
• Live Canvas Aspect Ratio & Output Bounds Preview:
  • Live proportional bounding box rendered on the canvas while adjusting W / H or scale sliders before generation.
  • Corner brackets and resolution badge pill (Target: 1536x1024 (3:2)) for instant visual feedback.
• Output Folder Shortcuts:
  • Added 1-click Outputs folder buttons to the top header bar, History panel, and Setup dialog to jump straight to generated images in Windows File Explorer.
• In-App Updater & Deploy Pipeline:
  • Background update checker connecting to https://desinc.my.to/image-studio/version.json.
  • Non-intrusive Discord-style green dot notification badge on the Setup button when an update is available (no popups or disruptive banners).
  • One-click update downloader in the Setup window.
