From the model card

What city96 says about HunyuanVideo

Read the model card

This is a direct GGUF conversion of tencent/HunyuanVideo

It is intended to be used with the native, built-in ComfyUI HunyuanVideo nodes

As this is a quantized model not a finetune, all the same restrictions/original license terms still apply.

The model files can be used with the ComfyUI-GGUF custom node.

Place model files in ComfyUI/models/unet - see the GitHub readme for further install instructions.

The VAE can be downloaded from this repository by Kijai

Please refer to this chart for a basic overview of quantization types.

Prompt / imagestart pointTemporal diffusionframes over timeVideoMP4 clipA video model generates a sequence of coherent frames from your prompt or a starting image.

Running it yourself

Run it on a rented GPU

Rent a machine by the hour. ComfyUI is installed on it. Open ComfyUI through the tunnel and load the workflow from the model's card on Hugging Face. Its model loader takes .safetensors files: replace it with Unet Loader (GGUF) and choose this model's file there.

# on your rented machine (the ssh line is on its page in the console)
# the GGUF loader nodes, once per machine
git clone https://github.com/city96/ComfyUI-GGUF /opt/ComfyUI/custom_nodes/ComfyUI-GGUF
pip install -r /opt/ComfyUI/custom_nodes/ComfyUI-GGUF/requirements.txt

# get REPO FILE FOLDER: one file into /workspace/models/FOLDER, where ComfyUI loads it from
get() { hf download "$1" "$2" --local-dir /workspace/hf-files && mkdir -p "/workspace/models/$3" && mv "/workspace/hf-files/$2" "/workspace/models/$3/$4"; }

# the model (7.3 GB)
