Now that you know about ComfyUI, let's dive into the main topic: how to use ComfyUI Text-to-Video feature.

First, you'll need to install ComfyUI. You can choose between the official integration package or the one-click launcher, but we recommend using the official integration package.

Step 1: Download the official integration package from the ComfyUI GitHub page, and navigate to the folder where you saved the package after completing the download.

If you are using Nvidia GPU, you need to double click run_nvidia_gpu.bat file to start ComfyUI, if you are using CPU, you can click run_cpu.bat to open ComfyUI.

ComfyUI's main folder:

• comfyui: The home directory where the program runs.
• update: Used for version update.
• run_cpu.bat: run ComfyUI with CPU.
• run_nvidia_gpu.bat: run ComfyUI with Nvidia GPU.

Step 2: Make sure your description is clear and detailed. Open the text-to-video tool in the free plan, then paste your checked text into the specified field. ComfyUI will automatically break down your text, recognizing key scenes, character dialogues, and visual elements.

Step 3: You can set up various requirements such as video style, scene switching, background music, and other parameters after the text is processed by AI.

Step 4: Once you've set the video parameters, click on the Generate Video button. ComfyUI Text to Video will automatically generate the video based on the text and settings you provided. The waiting time depends on the length of the text.

Step 5: After waiting for a few minutes to get the finished video, you can view the video in the interface, if it meets your needs, then you can click Download to save the video or share it on social media.

To fully utilize the ComfyUI Text to Video feature, and generate high quality videos that perfectly fit your requirements, you need to keep the following tips in mind:

• Describe the text in detail: The more specific and detailed the text required for the video content, the better the AI understands it and the better the generated video will be.
• Try various styles: Don't limit yourself to the default style, try different video templates to match the perfect video.
• Add music: One of the most important points to make the generated video perfect is to upload your own audio to create the right ambiance.

If you're looking to learn how to create workflows on ComfyUI, this section will show you how to create a Text to Image workflow as an example. You can easily adapt this to create other workflows.

When using ComfyUI for the first time, you'll see a default workflow. If you'd like to start fresh, just go to the bottom left corner of the page and click Clear to remove the existing nodes.

Step 1: Add K Sampler node.

Right click in the workspace, and select K Sampler in Sampler, so that K Sampler will be added to your workflow.

Adding the sampler together with the scheduler gives better generation results, so you can choose an optimized scheduler such as euler_ancestral.

Some key parameters of the K sampler.

• Random Seed: Corresponding to the value of the seed in the webUI, the value defaults to 0, which guarantees that the same photo will be generated with the same amount of seed.
• Post-Run Action: There are four options: fixed, add, subtract, random.
• Steps: Represents the iteration steps in the webUI, usually set between 30-40.
• CGF: Determines the relevance of the cue word, the higher the value, the more the generated image matches the cue, the lower the value, the more creative freedom the AI has.

Step 2: Add Load Model node.

Drag the model connection point to the function area, and select the Checkpoint Loader node, where your model will be loaded. This needs to be repeated for future nodes as well.

Step 3: Enter prompts and negate prompts.

You will see two nodes labeled CLIP Text Encode, enter your hint in the top node and your negative hint in the bottom node.

Step 4: Add Image Size/Batch node.

Drag the Latent connection point, and select the Empty Latent node to resize the image, and batch settings so you can set the width, height of the image.

Step 5: Add VAE Decoder node.

Drag the Latent node and select VAE Decoder. Then you can start generating the image node build.

Step 6: Add Image Preview node.

Drag the Image node and select Preview Image, then the generated image will appear here. And you can right-click to preview and save it locally.

Now that the entire text-to-image workflow is set up, you can click on the Add Prompt Queue button to enter your text and start generating images. Please note that this workflow can be saved and reused.

Note

If you see a red error message while generating an image, it means some of your nodes aren't properly connected. Check the nodes to ensure they are correctly linked— for example, the yellow node should be connected to another yellow node. After verifying, try generating the image again.
