ComfyUI Node: MaskList2Video

MaskList2Video:

The MaskList2Video node is designed to process an image and its corresponding mask to generate a cropped version of the image based on the bounding box derived from the mask. This node is particularly useful for AI artists who need to isolate specific regions of an image for further processing or analysis. By leveraging the mask, the node identifies the bounding box that encompasses the masked area and applies padding to ensure the cropped region includes some context around the masked area. This functionality is essential for tasks that require precise image segmentation and manipulation, such as creating animated portraits or focusing on specific elements within an image.

MaskList2Video Input Parameters:

image

The image parameter represents the input image that you want to process. This image will be cropped based on the bounding box derived from the mask. The image should be in a format that the node can recognize and process, typically a tensor representation of the image.

mask

The mask parameter is a binary mask that indicates the regions of interest within the input image. The mask is used to calculate the bounding box that will be used to crop the image. The mask should be the same dimensions as the input image, with values indicating the areas to be included in the bounding box.

padding

The padding parameter specifies the amount of padding to be added around the bounding box derived from the mask. This padding ensures that the cropped region includes some context around the masked area. The default value is 10, and it can be adjusted to increase or decrease the padding as needed. The padding value should be an integer.

MaskList2Video Output Parameters:

IMAGE

The IMAGE output is the cropped version of the input image. This cropped image is derived based on the bounding box calculated from the mask and includes the specified padding. The output image retains the same format as the input image but is focused on the region of interest.

BOX

The BOX output is a list representing the coordinates of the bounding box used to crop the image. The list contains four integers: the x-coordinate of the top-left corner, the y-coordinate of the top-left corner, the x-coordinate of the bottom-right corner, and the y-coordinate of the bottom-right corner. This bounding box can be used for further processing or analysis.

MaskList2Video Usage Tips:

• Ensure that the mask accurately represents the regions of interest within the input image to achieve precise cropping.
• Adjust the padding parameter to include more or less context around the masked area, depending on your specific needs.
• Use the BOX output to understand the exact region that was cropped and to apply further processing if necessary.

MaskList2Video Common Errors and Solutions:

"IndexError: index out of range"

• Explanation: This error occurs when the padding value causes the bounding box to exceed the dimensions of the input image.
• Solution: Ensure that the padding value is appropriate for the size of the input image. Reduce the padding value if necessary to prevent the bounding box from exceeding the image dimensions.

"TypeError: expected Tensor as input"

• Explanation: This error occurs when the input image or mask is not in the expected tensor format.
• Solution: Ensure that both the input image and mask are provided in the correct tensor format. Convert them to tensors if they are not already in that format.

"ValueError: mask and image dimensions do not match"

• Explanation: This error occurs when the dimensions of the mask do not match the dimensions of the input image.
• Solution: Verify that the mask has the same dimensions as the input image. Resize or adjust the mask to match the image dimensions before processing.
