 All notable changes to ComfyUI-AusBoss are documented here.
 
+## 2.25.0 - 2026-11-12
+
+- **New node: Load Image.** Loads a picture and sets its size in the same
+  node, so a workflow needs no resize node after its loader. Size can be a
+  megapixel count, a longest side, a scale, a box the picture fits inside, or
+  a box it fills by cropping, rounded to a multiple you choose. It can also
+  cut a piece or a shape such as 16:9 out of the picture without resizing,
+  and you pick which part is kept: the center, a side or a corner. Arrows
+  step through the pictures in the input folder. Two small pictures on the
+  node show what goes in and what comes out, with both sizes and what is
+  cut off, before you run. It also gives the file's name and its original
+  size. With Size off the picture comes out exactly as the file has it.
+
+- **Clear VRAM from the right-click menu.** Right-click the empty canvas
+  and pick **Clear VRAM 🆎** to unload every model and free memory on the
+  ComfyUI server, the same as ComfyUI's own "Unload Models and Execution
+  Cache". A short message says when it is done. Turn the entry off in
+  Settings, 🆎 AusBoss, Memory.
+
+- **Callout 🆎: Info card.** Right-click a Callout and pick **Info card**
+  for a small card with a title, a list of labels and values, and small
+  print, such as a table of run times. Write a row as `label | value`; a
+  row in **bold** is drawn in teal so the one to pick stands out. The first
+  line is the title, and a ⏱️ ℹ️ ⚠️ 💡 or ✅ at its start becomes a small
+  icon. An older pack shows the card as a plain note with its rows written
+  out.
+
+- **Save Image shows big pictures at once.** The node now shows a small
+  copy of each picture, a few hundred kilobytes, where it used to load the
+  whole file. A 30 MB sheet on a ComfyUI opened from another computer took
+  half a minute to show, or never did; it now shows as the run ends. The
+  saved file is the same full-size file as before.
+
+- **Save Image: the Save button is hard to miss.** With **Auto save** off,
+  a row over the picture now says **Not saved yet** and holds a solid
+  **Save picture** button. Before, it was a small SAVE label in the corner.
+  With several pictures the button reads **Save all 4**, or **Save this
+  one** when the arrows are on one picture. After a save the row says the
+  name the picture was saved under.
+
+- **A picture that loads slowly no longer leaves the old one up.** When a
+  result took more than about 16 seconds to reach the browser, the node
+  kept the picture from the run before. Now the new picture always shows,
+  and the old one dims while the new one loads. This fixes Select Frame,
+  Mask Refine, Mask by Name and LaMa Inpaint as well as Save Image.
+
+## 2.24.0 - 2026-11-12
+
+- **New node: Edit Lock.** Keeps every part of your picture that an edit
+  did not change exactly where it was, with the colors it had. Edit models
+  redraw the whole picture, so untouched parts often come back a little
+  zoomed, shifted or tinted. Put Edit Lock between the model and the
+  sampler and give it the picture you are editing. It needs no mask. It
+  steps aside when the edit changes the whole picture, and lets rain,
+  snow and haze through while holding the picture in place. Tested on
+  MiniMax-H3-Image.
+
+- **New node: Edit Lock Restore.** Puts your picture's own pixels back in
+  every part the edit did not change. Add it after the VAE Decode with
+  Edit Lock's `edit_lock` output. It also gives a mask of what the edit
+  changed and a one-line report.
+
+- **New node: Text Lines.** It runs what comes after once for each line of
+  your text. Type five prompts, one on each line, and one run makes five
+  pictures. It also takes a list a text model wrote: empty lines are
+  skipped, a leading number or bullet comes off, and **Limit** stops a list
+  that ran long.
+
+- **Save Image shows every picture of a run at once.** When a run saves
+  several pictures, they now show side by side in the node, the way the
+  core Save Image does. The arrows still go to each picture by itself, and
+  round again to all of them. Select Frame, Mask Refine, Mask by Name and
+  LaMa Inpaint show a batch the same way.
+
+- **Save Image can wait for a click before it saves.** Switch **Auto save**
+  off and a run only shows its pictures on the node. **SAVE ALL** over them
+  keeps every one; step to one picture with the arrows and **SAVE** keeps
+  just that one. Good for making a batch and keeping the best. Auto save is
+  on unless you switch it off, so nothing changes for workflows you have.
+
+- **New node: Prompt Variations.** A prompt box that picks one choice from
+  each set in curly brackets, such as `a {red|blue|green} {sweater|jacket}`,
+  on every run. The seed decides the picks, so the same seed gives the same
+  prompt again. Queue 50 runs with a random seed and get 50 different
+  prompts, with no wildcard pack.
+
+- **Mask by Touch: type a name to take it out of the mask.** The name field
+  under the picture now has a sign in front. Click it to switch between **+**
+  (add by name) and **−** (take away by name), then type "face" or "hair" and
+  press Enter. Typing "-face" takes it away whatever the sign says. Before,
+  a typed name was only taken away while Erase was chosen, which nothing on
+  the node said.
+
+- **Mask by Touch: Ctrl-click only takes away what you point at.** With a
+  sweater picked, a Ctrl-click on the face offered the whole person, and the
+  sweater went with it. Now a spot where nothing is picked says so and
+  changes nothing.
+
+- **Mask by Touch works on big pictures.** A look at a 3840 pixel picture took
+  twice as long as at 2048, and at 8192 pixels it ran a 32 GB graphics card
+  out of memory. The node now asks SAM 3 about a copy of at most 2048 pixels
+  and brings the answer back to full size. Pictures up to 2048 pixels come
+  out exactly as before. On bigger ones a mask's edge can sit a pixel or two
+  differently.
+
+- **Mask by Touch no longer fills the queue.** With Image Crop + Rotate + Pad
+  or Load Image + Pad wired in, every change to the loader (each step of its
+  megapixels, for one) queued one more look at a picture that was already
+  replaced. Now only the newest look waits. The button that pauses the
+  looking also says **Pause** and **Look on**.
+
+- **New node: FlashVSR Upscale 🆎.** Makes a video larger and sharper with
+  the FlashVSR v1.1 model, from 1x to 4x. It needs one model file and no
+  other pack: the help page has the download link. A long clip needs no more
+  graphics memory than a short one, and a result too large for the free
+  memory is made in tiles.
+  The new example `FlashVSR Video Upscale (AusBoss)` shows it between Load
+  Video and Save Video.
+
+- **Two errors from outside a workflow now say what to do.** When a MiniMax H3
+  run stops with `KeyError: 'latent'` because the Muse MiniMax Director pack is
+  installed, a message names that pack and says to turn it off. When an older
+  ComfyUI cannot read a `w6a8` model file, a message says to update ComfyUI.
+  ComfyUI's own error report stays as it is.
+
+- **ComfyUI starts when the pack is installed twice.** A Manager install
+  (`custom_nodes/ausboss-nodes`) beside a git clone
+  (`custom_nodes/ComfyUI-AusBoss`) stopped ComfyUI while it started. Now one
+  copy loads and the other steps aside, and the console says which folder to
+  delete. A copy from 2.23.0 or older is the one that loads when it sits
+  beside a newer one, so delete the older folder.
+
+- **A Workflow Note popup closes when you click outside it.** Opening an
+  info tile (a Tips note, say) showed the full note, and only its Close
+  button or Escape put it away. A click on the dark area around it now
+  closes it too. Selecting text in the note, or a drag that starts on it,
+  keeps it open, and the Edit form still asks before it drops a change.
+
+## 2.23.0 - 2026-11-09
+
+- **Mask by Touch keeps your picks when the picture changes.** Your clicks
+  and paint move onto the new picture, in the same places, so an edit before
+  the node no longer means picking everything again. On a picture of another
+  size they are scaled to fit. A click finds whatever is at that spot now;
+  paint stays exactly as painted. For the old way, set **New picture**, under
+  More, to **start over**.
+
+- **Workflow Switches: a switch that changes a setting no longer turns its
+  node off.** The node it sets keeps running. LoRA choices keep every field
+  that differs between them, and the add-choice button shows as soon as a
+  node is selected.
+
+- **Mask by Touch clears a stopped run's message once a run works.** When
+  a run stopped at the node, its message stayed on the picture after the
+  next run from the Run button had worked. It now goes as soon as the new
+  result comes in.
+
+- **Video Crop + Rotate + Pad → Clip: the fixed_frames input sits on its own
+  row again.** In workflows saved by an earlier release, newer ComfyUI drew
+  fixed_frames on top of force_rate, so a link could not be dropped on it.
+  Every input the pack moves into the input column now gets its own row.
+
+- **Node colours stay after a save and reload.** A colour picked from the
+  right-click menu now survives saving, reloading and pasting. In Nodes 2.0,
+  About this node is in the right-click menu, and dragging a node's corner
+  snaps to nearby lines (hold Shift to skip the snap).
+
+- **Image Folder shows the right pictures when you change folders.**
+  Switching folders or reloading a workflow no longer shows old or mixed-up
+  results, a very large folder keeps its newest files, and thumbnails refresh
+  when a picture is saved over.
+
+- **Crop for Inpaint keeps the whole soft edge inside the crop.** The blend
+  at the seam is now complete. Crops and blend masks can come out slightly
+  different from earlier releases for the same inputs.
+
+- **Compare, the preview bar and Save Image no longer show a stale picture.**
+  A late reply is ignored once the picture has changed, and Save Image
+  forgets its old saved file when the folder changes. Save Image also takes
+  bfloat16 and one-channel images, and a blank linked caption writes no
+  caption file.
+
+- **Color Match leaves a picture alone when matched to itself.** When the
+  reference is the same picture, or the same colours at another size, the
+  picture now comes back unchanged instead of shifting colour. Other matches
+  can differ from earlier releases by less than one shade step.
+
+- **Krea 2 Outpaint Model Patch no longer reuses an old reference.** On a
+  fresh server's first run, its reference cache could hand back a stale
+  reference, so the new area came out different from a run without the
+  cache. Now both match exactly. Other model patches on the same model also
+  apply alongside it.
+
+- **Three example workflow notes now match their graphs.** Krea 2 Rotate +
+  Outpaint says its tone match is on, Qwen Image 2.1 Inpaint says its seed is
+  fixed, and Qwen Image 2.1 Upscale + Restore says the redraw is at least
+  about 2 MP.
+
+- **The pack's own checks are stricter.** They read pyproject.toml properly
+  and catch more ways a node could be hidden from the Registry's scanners.
+  Nothing changes in your workflows.
+
+## 2.22.0 - 2026-11-07
+
+- **Node cards have a calmer, easier-to-read look.** Number boxes, choices,
+  switches, fields and buttons are now one solid gray with no outlines, on a
+  dark card. Labels, units and section names are lighter and easier to read,
+  and every control in a card row is the same height. The bar above a result
+  picture (the picture arrows, the Preview steps and Preview switches, and
+  buttons such as AUTO) and the picture's frame match the cards. The colors
+  live in one shared file, so the rest of the pack can follow.
+
+- **Mask by Touch 🆎 no longer fills holes unless you ask.** Fill small
+  holes, under More, now starts off, so a hole you pick stays a hole. Saved
+  workflows keep their setting.
+
+- **H3 Prompt Writer: a swap no longer makes the new person talk to noise.** With
+  **Keep the clip's sound** on and no words typed, the writer told H3 the new
+  person speaks as in the video whenever the clip's sound was loud, so a train
+  or a beat made their mouth move. It now does that only when it hears a real
+  voice: half a second or more of clear speech.
+
+- **Mask by Touch shows a changed picture without unplugging it.** When the
+  picture coming in changes and the run stops because the picks were made on
+  the old one, the new picture now shows on the node, ready to pick from. A
+  new reload button beside Undo shows it any time, without running the
+  workflow.
+- **Save Image and Save Video: the Steps switch is now called Preview steps.** It
+  shows the picture or the clip's first frame while it is being made, and "Steps"
+  read like a sampler's step count. It works the same, and saved workflows keep
+  their setting.
+
 ## 2.21.2 - 2026-11-07

+### Load Image
+
+Loads a picture and sets its size in one node. Pick a file, upload one, or step through the input folder with the arrows. **Size** can stay off, or bring the picture to a megapixel count, a longest side, a scale, a box it must fit inside, or a box it fills by cropping. It can also cut a piece or a shape such as 16:9 out of the picture without resizing, and **Keep** picks which part stays: the center, a side or a corner. **Round to** keeps the result on a multiple of 8, 16 or whatever the model wants. The node shows the picture going in and coming out, with both sizes, before you run, such as `912 × 1632 → 1144 × 2048`.
+
+It returns the `image`, a `mask` of its see-through parts, the new `width` and `height`, the `filename` for a save prefix, and the file's `original_width` and `original_height`.
+
 ### Load Image + Pad
 
 Makes a canvas for outpainting: drag the edges out to add room around a picture. The Source list shows the picture under the pointer. The new area can be a solid color, the average color of the nearest edge, the edge pixels smeared outward, a blurred copy of the picture, or a mirror of it. The card also has a seam feather, a canvas multiple and a megapixel budget, and **Exact padding** opens one control per side. A budget of 0 keeps the picture's size, and anything higher resizes the picture before padding. A picture wired into `source_image` is padded instead of the chosen file.

 Qwen drew this watercolor 5.6% taller, and Realign to Source lined it back up with the original.
 
+### Edit Lock
+
+Keeps every part of your picture that an edit did not change exactly where it was, with the colors it had. An edit model redraws the whole picture, so the parts you did not ask about often come back a little zoomed in, shifted or tinted, and the picture jumps when you flip between before and after. Put Edit Lock between the model and the sampler and give it the picture you are editing. It needs no mask: it sees what the edit changes while the picture is being made, and holds on to everything else.
+
+When the edit changes the whole picture (a new style, new light), there is nothing to keep, so the node steps aside and the edit runs as usual. A soft effect over the whole picture, such as rain or falling snow, is let through as well: the node then only holds the picture in place. **Lock** (`lock`) set to `off` does nothing at all, `always` locks even a whole-picture edit, and an optional `mask` says where the edit may happen. **Tolerance** (`tolerance`) sets how big a change must be to count as part of the edit.
+
+On MiniMax-H3-Image, 4 megapixel edits moved the picture by up to 14 px without the lock (measured at 1 megapixel) and by 0.2 px or less with it (0.08 px or less on 35 of the 36 locked runs), on 19 local edits at two seeds each. After five edits in a row on one picture the plain chain had drifted 1.65 px and turned visibly pink; the locked chain sat at 0.04 px with no tint.
+
+### Edit Lock Restore
+
+Puts your picture's own pixels back in every part the edit did not change. Edit Lock keeps those parts in place, but they still pass through the VAE, which softens fine detail a little. Add this right after the VAE Decode and wire in Edit Lock's `edit_lock` output. **Feather** (`feather`) sets how softly the original fades into the edit. It also returns `edit_mask`, white where the edit changed the picture, and a one-line `report` of how much was kept.
+
 ### Image Compare A/B
 
 Compares two pictures with a slider, or flips between them whole. Nothing covers the picture, and its size shows underneath. The panel grows with the node, and images A and B pass through, so you can put it anywhere on an image wire. **Erase** mixes the two by hand: rub parts of one picture away with a brush so the other shows through, then save the mix as a PNG under a name you type, with a layered PSD for Photoshop or GIMP if you want it.

Wire in the seed your sampler uses: a new seed gives a new mix, and the same seed gives the same prompt again. Set the seed to randomize and queue 50 runs to get 50 different prompts. Text without brackets comes out exactly as typed, so a JSON prompt is safe.

 ### H3 Prompt Writer
 
 Type what happens, one line for each moment, and leave a blank line to cut to a new place. Connect up to four pictures and give each one a job: a person, a place, an outfit, a thing or a style. Copy the moves from a video, keep a clip going, or add a voice or a song. A timeline on the node shows when each moment plays before you run it. It needs no extra model and you never see H3's prompt format. Connect a small text model and it fills in a one-line idea.

 ## Example workflows
 
-These are the workflows where the nodes do something core ComfyUI doesn't do by itself: outpainting and inpainting that put your original picture back, lining an edit back up with its source, upscaling a picture in tiles, masking a thing by its name or with a click, and removing a watermark from a clip. Open a JSON file from [`example_workflows/`](example_workflows), or find them under this pack in ComfyUI's template browser. Each one has a thumbnail, numbered groups and a Workflow Note with the setup steps and model downloads.

+# Edit Lock
+
+Keeps every part of your picture that an edit did not change exactly where
+it was, with the colors it had.
+
+An edit model redraws the whole picture, also the parts you did not ask it
+to change. Those parts often come back a little zoomed in, shifted or
+tinted. Flip between the original and the edit and the whole picture
+jumps. Edit Lock stops that: only the edit is new.
+
+It needs no mask. It sees what the edit changes while the picture is being
+made, and holds on to everything else.
+
+## Quick start
+
+1. Put **Edit Lock 🆎** between the model and the sampler: the model (after
+   any LoRA loader) goes in, and its `model` output goes to the sampler or
+   guider.
+2. Wire the VAE into `vae` and the picture you are editing into `image`.
+   Use the same picture the edit model gets, at the size of the result.
+3. After the VAE Decode, add **Edit Lock Restore 🆎**. Wire the decoded
+   picture into `image` and Edit Lock's `edit_lock` output into
+   `edit_lock`. This puts your own pixels back in the untouched parts.
+4. Wire Restore's `report` into **Show Text 🆎** to read how much was kept.
+
+Run your edit as usual. Prompt, steps and seed stay as they were.
+
+## What it does with each kind of edit
+
+- **A local edit** (add glasses, repaint the car, change the sign): the
+  edit happens, and the rest of the picture stays put.
+- **An edit of the whole picture** (a new style, new light, fog):
+  there is nothing to keep, so Edit Lock steps aside and the edit runs as
+  if the node were not there. The report says so.
+- **A soft effect over the whole picture** (rain, falling snow, haze):
+  it touches everything a little, so there is no untouched part to put
+  back. Edit Lock lets the effect through and only holds the picture in
+  place, so it does not come back zoomed or shifted. The report says so.
+- **A soft effect and a clear change in one edit** (rain and an umbrella):
+  the node may lock on the umbrella and hold the rain back everywhere
+  else. If the effect is missing outside the changed part, set **Lock** to
+  `off`.
+- **Something in between** (a new hair color on a close-up, a new
+  background behind a person): it may lock or step aside. The report says
+  which. These edits often change the light on the face too. `auto` steps
+  aside for most of them, so the new light comes with the new hair.
+  `always` keeps the old light on everything it keeps, which can look
+  wrong on a face. A mask settles it: paint the hair and the face, and
+  the rest is locked.
+- **The model ignores your picture and draws a new one:** that reads as a
+  whole-picture edit, so `auto` steps aside. `always` holds the model to
+  your picture.
+
+## Controls
+
+- **model**: the edit model. Patch last, after any LoRAs.
+- **vae**: the same VAE the workflow decodes with.
+- **image**: the picture you are editing, at the size of the result. If
+  the sizes differ by more than a few percent the lock does nothing, and
+  the report says so.
+- **Lock** (`lock`): `auto` (the default) locks the untouched parts and
+  steps aside when the whole picture changes. `always` locks even then.
+  `off` does nothing, which makes a quick before and after.
+- **Tolerance** (`tolerance`): how big a change must be to count as part of
+  the edit. 1 is the default. Raise it if small unwanted changes get
+  through. Lower it if the lock holds back part of your edit.
+- **mask** (optional): white marks where the edit may happen; everything
+  else is locked. With a mask the node does not look for the change
+  itself. A mask from **Mask by Touch 🆎** or **Mask by Name 🆎** works.
+
+## Outputs
+
+- **model**: the model with the lock on.
+- **edit_lock**: what the lock kept, for Edit Lock Restore 🆎.
+
+## Good to know
+
+- The lock belongs to one picture. For an edit with two pictures, give it
+  the one the result should line up with.
+- It works on single pictures, not video.
+- The node watches the first steps of a run and locks for the rest, so
+  the model finishes the edit on top of your real picture. Shadows and
+  reflections the edit adds next to the changed part still come through.
+- If your edit is missing and the report says nearly all of the picture
+  was kept, set **Lock** to `off`.
+- Tested on MiniMax-H3-Image. The lock itself is not tied to one model, but
+  the line between "local edit" and "whole picture" was measured there.
+
+## Technical details
+
+At every step an edit model predicts the finished picture. Edit Lock
+compares that prediction with your picture in latent space.
+
+**Watching.** The first prediction of a run is a blur, and rain, snow or
+the light a new hair color throws on a face only show a few steps in. So
+the node watches until the noise is down to 0.8 of where it began: step 4
+of a 6-step MiniMax-H3-Image run. A run that never gets that low decides
+at its last step. While it watches, the model draws its own picture and
+only one thing is corrected. The model often draws the whole picture about
+one percent larger, or a little shifted. The node measures that zoom and
+shift at every step, on the calmer half of the picture, and moves the
+prediction back so it sits where your picture does.
+
+**Deciding.** Change is measured against the quiet part of the picture:
+the tenth where the prediction differs least. An even tint over the whole
+picture is taken out first, so a color cast is not read as a change. A
+spot counts as changed when it differs by 3 times the quiet level, or by 2
+times while it touches a spot that does. So a faint change beside a clear
+one belongs to the edit, and a faint change alone is redraw noise.
+**Tolerance** multiplies both numbers.
+
+**Locking.** From the decision on, wherever the picture did not change,
+the original latent is put back before the sampler takes its next step. A
+part once read as changed stays changed for the rest of the run. The last
+step ends on the original there, so what was kept is the original itself,
+not a redrawn copy.
+
+**Stepping aside.** `auto` does not lock in three cases:
+
+- At the first step the whole picture is already changing (a new style,
+  new light). The node reads the calmest fifth of a smoothed copy, where a
+  slightly larger redraw nearly vanishes and a new style does not. On
+  MiniMax-H3-Image, local edits at 1, 4 and 16 megapixels read 0.22 or
+  less there and whole-picture edits 0.27 or more; the line sits at 0.243.
+  The model then runs untouched.
+- At the decision no place has changed clearly: the strongest spot of the
+  picture is under 4 times the quiet level. That is light rain or fog.
+  Local edits read 4.7 or more there, glasses and makeup included.
+- At the decision the lock would hand a tenth of the picture or more to
+  the edit, yet the strongest hundredth of the picture is under 4 times
+  the quiet level. That is heavier rain or snow, and a lock would let it
+  through in patches. Local edits that wide read 4.4 or more; rain and
+  snow read 3.6 or less.
+
+In the last two cases the node keeps undoing the zoom and shift to the end
+of the run, and puts nothing back. An edit close to one of these lines (a
+hair color change on a close-up, a new background, smoke) can fall on
+either side. The report says which, and **Lock** overrides it.
+
+This is the target the TailSteer paper trains a model toward (the source
+where nothing changed, the model's own edit elsewhere), applied while
+sampling. It needs no LoRA and no training.

+# Edit Lock Restore
+
+Puts your picture's own pixels back in every part the edit did not change.
+
+**Edit Lock 🆎** keeps the untouched parts in place while the picture is
+made. They still pass through the VAE, which softens fine detail a little.
+This node swaps your original pixels in for those parts, so they match
+your picture pixel for pixel. Only the edit is new.
+
+## Quick start
+
+1. Add it right after the VAE Decode, before any upscaler.
+2. Wire the decoded picture into `image`.
+3. Wire the `edit_lock` output of Edit Lock 🆎 into `edit_lock`.
+4. Wire `report` into **Show Text 🆎** to read what was kept.
+
+## Controls
+
+- **image**: the edited picture, straight from the VAE Decode.
+- **edit_lock**: from Edit Lock 🆎. It carries your original picture and
+  the map of what the edit changed, so there is nothing else to wire.
+- **Feather** (`feather`): how softly your original fades into the edit,
+  in pixels. 16 is the default. The fade lies outside the edit, so the
+  edit itself is never mixed with the old picture.
+
+## Outputs
+
+- **image**: the edit, with your original pixels in the untouched parts.
+- **edit_mask**: white where the edit changed the picture. Use it to see
+  what the lock decided, or for a later step that should only touch the
+  edit.
+- **report**: one line, such as "Edit Lock kept 82% of your picture as it
+  was and left 18% to the edit".
+
+## When nothing was locked
+
+The picture passes through unchanged, the mask is all white, and the
+report says why: the edit changed the whole picture, the lock was off, or
+the picture and the result were different sizes.
+
+## Technical details
+
+The map of what changed is made while sampling, on the latent grid. Here

+# FlashVSR Upscale
+
+Makes a video larger and sharper. Give it the frames of a clip, set how much
+larger, and it returns the same clip with more detail. Use it as the last
+step before Save Video, for a generated clip or one you loaded.
+
+It needs one model file and no other pack.
+
+## The model file
+
+Download `flashvsr_v1.1_fp16.safetensors` (3.5 GB) from
+[ausboss/FlashVSR-v1.1-ComfyUI](https://huggingface.co/ausboss/FlashVSR-v1.1-ComfyUI)
+and put it in `ComfyUI/models/diffusion_models`. Then refresh the page, or
+press `R`, and pick it under **Model**.
+
+The file holds the official FlashVSR v1.1 weights in one piece. Another
+FlashVSR file will not load here: the node stops and says which part is
+missing.
+
+## Controls
+
+- **frames**: The clip, as a batch of frames. Load Video's frames output
+  goes here.
+- **Model** (`model`): The model file above. The list shows the files in
+  `diffusion_models` that have FlashVSR in their name.
+- **Scale** (`scale`, starts at `2`): How many times larger each side gets,
+  from 1 to 4. At `1` the clip keeps its size and is only sharpened.
+- **Keep colors** (`color_match`, starts on): Brings each frame's colours
+  back to those of your clip. Leave it on unless you want the model's own
+  colours.
+- **vae** (optional): Connect the Wan 2.1 VAE for a slower, finer finish.
+  With nothing connected, the fast decoder inside the model file makes the
+  picture.
+
+## Outputs
+
+- **frames**: The larger frames, as many as went in, in the same order.
+  The frame rate and the sound are not touched, so wire those from Load
+  Video to Save Video as before.
+
+## What to expect
+
+FlashVSR redraws fine detail: skin, hair, cloth and edges come back
+sharper than the clip had them. It keeps the scene, the motion and the
+timing.
+
+A long clip needs no more graphics memory than a short one. The node reads
+the clip a few frames at a time and keeps only the last few in memory.
+
+## Technical details
+
+- **Size.** The result is exactly your size times **Scale**, rounded to
+  even numbers. Inside, the model works at a multiple of 128 pixels each
+  way; the node pads the picture for that and cuts the padding off again,
+  so nothing of your picture is cropped.
+- **Graphics memory.** About 10 GB for a 576 x 1024 result. A result too
+  large for the free memory is made in overlapping tiles and blended, and
+  the tile size is chosen from the memory that is free when the node runs.
+  1152 x 2048 ran in two tiles at about 16 GB. On an 8 GB card (RTX 3070
+  Laptop) the same result ran in smaller tiles at about 6.5 GB, at about 3
+  seconds a frame.
+- **Speed.** On an RTX 5090: about 7 frames a second for a 576 x 1024
+  result and about 2 frames a second for 1152 x 2048.
+- **One step.** The model runs once per group of frames. There are no
+  steps, sampler, prompt or seed to set.
+- **The model.** FlashVSR v1.1 by Junhao Zhuang and the OpenImagingLab
+  team, released under Apache-2.0. It is built on the Wan 2.1 1.3B video
+  model. This node is the pack's own code in plain PyTorch.
+- The node makes no network requests and writes no files.

+# Load Image
+
+Loads a picture and sets its size in the same node, so a workflow does not
+need a resize node and a size node after its loader.
+
+Pick a file in **Source**, press **Load** to upload one, or use the arrows
+under it to step through the pictures in ComfyUI's input folder. The line
+beside the arrows shows the size of the file and, when the size changes, the
+size that comes out:
+
+`912 × 1632 → 1144 × 2048`
+
+That is the real output size, worked out before you run.
+
+Under that line are two small pictures: the file as it goes in, and the
+picture as it comes out. On the first one the part that is kept is lit and
+the part that is cut off is dark. Between them the node says the shape
+(`3:4 → 1:1`) and what happens (`77% size`, `cuts 449 px of height`).
+
+## Size
+
+**Size** (`size`) picks how the picture is resized. Each choice shows only
+the numbers it uses.
+
+| Choice | What it does | Its number |
+|---|---|---|
+| **off** | The picture comes out exactly as the file has it. | none |
+| **megapixels** | Brings the whole picture to a total size and keeps its shape. | **Megapixels** (`megapixels`): 1.0 is about 1024 × 1024 |
+| **longest side** | Sets the longer edge; the other edge follows. | **Longest side** (`longest_side`), in pixels |
+| **scale** | Multiplies both edges. | **Scale** (`scale`): 0.5 is half, 2 is double |
+| **fit inside** | Makes the picture as big as it can be inside a box, with nothing cut off. | **Width** and **Height** (`width`, `height`) |
+| **crop to fill** | Covers the box completely and cuts off what sticks out. | **Width** and **Height** |
+| **crop** | Cuts a piece of that size out of the picture. Nothing is resized. | **Width** and **Height** |
+| **crop to ratio** | Cuts the largest piece of a shape, such as 16:9, out of the picture. Nothing is resized. | **Ratio** (`ratio`) |
+
+**Round to** (`multiple`) rounds the new width and height to a multiple of
+that number. Most models want 8 or 16. Set it to 1 to keep the numbers as
+they are. It does nothing while Size is off.
+
+## Which part is kept
+
+The three crop choices show **Keep** (`crop_from`). It picks the part of the
+picture that stays: `center` cuts evenly from both sides, `top` keeps the top
+and cuts from the bottom, `bottom left` keeps that corner, and so on.
+
+You can also click the first small picture: click its top to keep the top,
+a corner to keep that corner. The lit part moves so you see what you get.
+
+In **Ratio**, `width : height` takes the shape from the Width and Height
+boxes, for a shape that is not in the list (1600 and 900 give 16:9).
+
+## More
+
+- **Method** (`method`): how pixels are resampled. `lanczos` is the sharpest
+  for photos. `nearest` keeps pixel art crisp.
+- **Enlarge** (`enlarge`): on, a small picture is made bigger to reach the
+  size you asked for. Off, a picture is only ever made smaller: one that is
+  already below the target comes out at its own size, and crop to fill cuts
+  the box's shape out of it without growing it.
+
+## The picture on the node
+
+The picture under the settings is ComfyUI's own preview, the same one the
+stock Load Image shows. Drop a file on the node or paste one to upload it,
+and right-click the node for the mask editor and for copy and paste.
+
+## Outputs
+
+- `image`: the picture at its new size.
+- `mask`: white where the picture is see-through and black where it is
+  solid, as the stock loader gives it. A picture with no transparency gives
+  an all black mask. It is always the same size as `image`.
+- `width`, `height`: the size that comes out.
+- `filename`: the file's name without its folder or its ending
+  (`shots/hero.png` gives `hero`), ready for a save node's prefix.
+- `original_width`, `original_height`: the size of the file before any
+  resize. Use them to bring a result back to the size you started from.
+
+## Which loader to use
+
+- **Load Image** (this node): load a picture and set its size.
+- **Load Image + Pad**: add empty space around a picture for outpainting.
+- **Image Crop + Rotate + Pad**: turn, crop and pad a picture by hand.
+
+## Technical details
+
+- Every frame of an animated file comes through as a batch, all at the same
+  new size. A phone photo is turned the way its EXIF data says.
+- With Size off the pixels are the file's own, bit for bit, and Round to is
+  not applied.
+- Rounding moves each edge to the nearest multiple, so the shape can change
+  by up to half a step. Fit inside rounds down instead, so the result never
+  leaves its box.
+- Crop to fill resizes the picture until it covers the box, then cuts the
+  box out at the side Keep names. The mask goes through the same resize and
+  the same cut.
+- Crop and crop to ratio only cut. A box larger than the picture is cut down
+  to the picture, and Round to rounds down so the piece stays inside it.
+  Enlarge does not apply to them.
+- The small pictures are drawn on one scale, so a picture made half as large
+  is drawn half as large.
+- With Enlarge off, a rounded size is rounded down so it never passes the
+  file's own size.
+- The size line on the node uses the same arithmetic as the run. The pack's
+  tests hold the two to the same answers over a table of cases.
+- Files are read only from ComfyUI's input, output and temp folders. A name
+  such as `photo.png [output]` loads a picture ComfyUI made.
+- The node runs again when the file changes on disk or a setting changes.

+## Output

+- An empty choice lets a part come and go: `a {|striped} shirt` gives "a

+- Text without curly brackets comes out exactly as typed.
+- To make one choice come up more often, write it more than once:
+  `{jeans|jeans|skirt}`.
+
+## Technical details
+
+Only brackets that hold a `|` are choices. Brackets without one are left as
+they are, so a JSON prompt such as `{"light": "soft"}` passes through
+unchanged. A `|` inside JSON brackets still counts as a choice.
+
+The innermost sets are picked first, from left to right, with Python's
+`random.Random(seed)`. The same text and seed always give the same prompt,
+on any machine. Spaces around each choice are trimmed, and an empty pick
+also drops the one space in front of it.
+
+The picks happen when the prompt runs, on the server, not in the browser.
+ComfyUI's own `{a|b}` choices in some text boxes are picked by the browser
+when you queue, with no seed; this node does not use them.

+"""Edit Lock: keep what an edit did not change. Pure torch, no ComfyUI imports.
+
+At every sampling step an edit model predicts the finished picture. Where
+that prediction sits close to the original, the edit is not happening
+there, so the original is put back and the model carries on from the real
+picture. This is the target TailSteer trains a model toward
+(original where nothing changed, the model's edit elsewhere), applied while
+sampling instead of through training.
+
+What counts as changed is measured against the quiet part of the picture:
+the tenth of it where the prediction differs least, which a local edit
+leaves near the level of the model's own redraw noise. The node watches the
+first steps, where it only undoes the model's zoom and shift, and decides
+once the picture has formed. An edit of the whole picture (a style, the
+light) has no quiet part: the first look checks for that and the lock steps
+aside. A soft change over the whole picture (rain, snow, haze) has no clear
+peak: the decision checks for that, and the picture is only held in place.

+"""FlashVSR video upscaling: the model's parts and the loop that runs a clip.
+
+FlashVSR (OpenImagingLab, Apache-2.0) sharpens a clip in one model step.
+It is a Wan 2.1 1.3B transformer that is also shown the low-quality frames,
+a small projector that turns those frames into tokens, and a small decoder
+that reads the frames again while it draws the result.
+
+Everything here is plain PyTorch. The model looks at a clip a few frames at
+a time and keeps a short memory of the frames before, so a long clip costs
+no more graphics memory than a short one. Module and parameter names follow
+the names in the published weights, which is what lets them load.
+
+Shapes used below: a token is 16x16 output pixels of one latent frame, a
+latent frame is 4 video frames, and an attention block is 2 latent frames
+by 8x8 tokens (128 tokens, 128x128 pixels over 8 frames).
