Removed torchcodec from requirements.txt and install.py to eliminate the FFmpeg
system dependency that was causing Windows installation failures.
Implementation:
- Removed torchcodec>=0.2.0 from requirements.txt
- Removed torchcodec>=0.2.0 from install.py core_packages list
- Removed torchaudio 2.9+ migration warnings (no longer applicable)
- Added AudioProcessingUtils.safe_load_audio() utility for robust audio loading
- Updated all audio loading calls to use fallback-aware utility function
Audio Loading Changes:
- character_voices_node.py: Uses safe_load_audio() with fallback support
- tts_text_node.py: Uses safe_load_audio() for narrator and character voices (2x)
- tts_srt_node.py: Uses safe_load_audio() for narrator voice
- higgs_audio_tts_processor.py: Uses safe_load_audio() (2x)
- higgs_audio_srt_processor.py: Uses safe_load_audio() (2x)
- index_tts_processor.py: Uses safe_load_audio() (2x)
- f5tts_streaming_adapter.py: Uses safe_load_audio()
- higgs_audio_adapter.py: Uses safe_load_audio()
- subprocess.py: Uses safe_load_audio()
Compatibility:
- torchaudio.load() works fine with fallback backends (soundfile, scipy)
- No quality loss - only negligible audio loading speed difference (~milliseconds)
- All existing audio formats supported
- Better error handling with graceful fallbacks
