I have A770 INTEL ARC card and I’m looking an open source AI API to generate some videos from an image.
A lot of thing I’ve found over the web is complicated (for me) to make it working with Intel ARC GPU. (ComfyUI works fine for me but just for generating images)
Could you give me some guidelines or AI open source solution or tools, to try please ?
I’ve read that INTEL AI Playground is great, but I don’t see any txt-to-video or img-to-video integrated tools
Best regards
PS : I have asked to INTEL support but they have suggested me to post my question here.
Meanwhile, I 've began to try Atomatic1111. could you tell me where we can I verify that the to(XPU) is well set please ?
(I have launched a working process but I can see my Intel GPU is not used)
I think even advanced users would have a hard time using A1111 WebUI with a GPU other than nVidia…
Intel ARC and RADEON themselves are for advanced users.
Also, if you use Extensions such as InfiniteZoom, it may be a little pointless if they are not compatible with Intel GPUs.
In addition to IPEX, there is also a method for accelerating Intel chips called OpenVINO, but this is difficult in its own way. Probably IPEX or DirectML would be better this time.
Intel® Extension for PyTorch (IPEX)
Command Line Arguments and Settings
--use-ipex
Any way to run this on Intel Arc? #455 (WebUI Forge)
It looks like ComfyUI also has a plugin, and it seems to be compatible with Intel GPUs.
Also, although it’s not a GUI, I found something that looks like it’s for Intel’s OpenVINO.
However, basically, you should think that you will need a lot of extra effort and skill for anything you do other than CUDA…
Really, ComfUI has a plugin for it ?
that’s a good news … So I have to go back with ComfyUI,
Few weeks ago, I succeeded in generating images with it, and it was full working with Intel GPU. But I never succeeded in getting it to work with OpenVino so i’ve forgot it.
But ok, I will try again with this plugin, thank you.
I’ve reinstalled first ComfyUI that works fine to generate an image.
but when launching I can see some import errors:
WARNING: some comfy_extras/ nodes did not import correctly. This may be because they are missing some dependencies.
-IMPORT FAILED: nodes_canny.py
-IMPORT FAILED: nodes_morphology.py
-IMPORT FAILED: nodes_audio.py
-IMPORT FAILED: nodes_video.py
=> This issue might be caused by new missing dependencies added the last time you updated ComfyUI.
Please do a: pip install -r requirements.txt
Could you tell me how to correct the issue ?
I’m not using “requirements.txt” but “requirements-ipex.txt”
And when installing ComfyUI the first I’ve already launched this command line:
I don’t know how to fix the error in ComfyUI…
I think the situation is probably the same as the github issue below, so please try changing the file and folder names to match your environment.
To be more specific, you can have as many Python installations as you like on the same PC, so there’s no point in installing the library in a Python other than the target one, and you definitely need to install the library in the Python that ComfyUI is using. If it still doesn’t work, it’s probably not compatible and won’t work.
Hi,
Thank you. I think I’ve previously followed the bad tutorial to install ComfyUI.
So I’ve installed it again to the letter, with the Intel ARC instructions below:
… and now all is fine. The Defaut worflow works fine and generate well images.
Now, I’m trying a simple thing but I have a very weird error :
if I replace the “Empty latent image” node by these 3 nodes : LoadImage+PadImageForInpainting+VAEencode (OR same thing with: LoadImage+VAEencode),
I obtain the Error: KSampler : XPU out of memory. Tried to allocate 128.00 GiB. GPU 0 has a total capacity of 15.56 GiB. Of the allocated memory 2.50 GiB is allocated by PyTorch, and 39.26 MiB is reserved by PyTorch but unallocated. Please use empty_cache to release all unoccupied cached memory.
but if I let ComfyUI generates the image it works fine.
