ComfyUI Node: Simple Readable Metadata (VIDEO)-SG

Simple Readable Metadata (VIDEO)-SG:

The SimpleReadableMetadataVideoSG node is designed to extract and present metadata from video files in a user-friendly format. Its primary purpose is to provide a clear and concise overview of video properties, such as resolution, file size, frame rate, and duration, along with any embedded metadata related to video generation. This node is particularly beneficial for AI artists and creators who need to quickly understand the technical details of their video files without delving into complex metadata structures. By converting raw metadata into readable text, it simplifies the process of analyzing video content, making it accessible even to those with limited technical expertise. The node also identifies and extracts specific parameters like positive and negative prompts and seed values, which are crucial for understanding the generative aspects of the video.

Simple Readable Metadata (VIDEO)-SG Input Parameters:

video

The video parameter specifies the path to the video file that you want to analyze. It is crucial for the node's operation as it determines the source from which metadata will be extracted. The video file must exist at the specified path; otherwise, the node will not be able to process it. There are no specific minimum or maximum values for this parameter, but it must be a valid file path.

force_rate

The force_rate parameter allows you to specify a frame rate that the node should use when analyzing the video. This can be useful if you want to override the video's original frame rate for consistency in analysis. The parameter accepts numerical values representing frames per second (FPS). There are no explicit minimum or maximum values provided, but it should be a reasonable FPS value.

max_frames

The max_frames parameter defines the maximum number of frames to be processed from the video. This is useful for limiting the analysis to a specific portion of the video, which can save time and computational resources. The parameter accepts integer values, with no specific minimum or maximum values mentioned, but it should be a positive integer.

resize_long_edge

The resize_long_edge parameter determines whether the video should be resized based on its longest edge. This can be useful for standardizing video dimensions across different files. The parameter likely accepts boolean values (True or False), indicating whether resizing should be applied.

emoji_in_readable_text

The emoji_in_readable_text parameter specifies whether emojis should be included in the readable text output. This can enhance the visual appeal of the metadata presentation. The parameter accepts boolean values, with True indicating that emojis should be included and False indicating they should not.

Simple Readable Metadata (VIDEO)-SG Output Parameters:

ui

The ui output provides a dictionary containing user interface elements, specifically a text representation of the video metadata. This output is important for displaying the extracted metadata in a format that is easy to read and understand.

result

The result output is a tuple containing several elements: the full readable text of the metadata, the output frames, a mask, the number of frames, the effective frame rate, the video filename, the raw metadata, positive prompts, negative prompts, and the seed value. Each element provides specific insights into the video's properties and generative metadata, making this output crucial for a comprehensive understanding of the video file.

Simple Readable Metadata (VIDEO)-SG Usage Tips:

• Ensure that the video file path is correct and the file exists to avoid errors during metadata extraction.
• Use the force_rate parameter to standardize frame rates across multiple videos for consistent analysis results.
• Limit the number of frames processed with the max_frames parameter to save time and resources, especially for long videos.
• Consider enabling emoji_in_readable_text for a more engaging and visually appealing metadata presentation.

Simple Readable Metadata (VIDEO)-SG Common Errors and Solutions:

Invalid video file: <video>

• Explanation: This error occurs when the specified video file path is incorrect or the file does not exist.
• Solution: Verify that the video file path is correct and that the file exists at the specified location.

N/A

• Explanation: This message indicates that the video file path could not be resolved or the file does not exist.
• Solution: Check the video file path and ensure that the file is accessible and correctly specified.
