ComfyUI Node: InvSRSampler

InvSRSampler:

The InvSRSampler is a specialized node designed to enhance image resolution through a process known as super-resolution sampling. This node is particularly beneficial for AI artists looking to upscale images while maintaining or improving their quality. It leverages advanced sampling techniques to generate high-resolution images from low-resolution inputs, making it an essential tool for tasks that require detailed and high-quality visual outputs. The node operates by utilizing a configuration-driven approach, allowing users to customize various parameters to achieve the desired level of detail and quality in the output images. Its primary goal is to provide a seamless and efficient way to upscale images, ensuring that the resulting visuals are both sharp and vibrant.

InvSRSampler Input Parameters:

eta

The eta parameter is a floating-point value that influences the randomness in the sampling process. It controls the amount of noise introduced during the sampling, which can affect the diversity and quality of the generated images. The default value is 1.0, with a minimum of 0.0 and a maximum of 100.0. Adjusting this parameter allows you to balance between deterministic outputs and more varied results, depending on your artistic needs.

s_noise

The s_noise parameter is another floating-point value that determines the level of noise applied during the sampling process. Similar to eta, it affects the variability and texture of the output images. The default value is 1.0, with a range from 0.0 to 100.0. By fine-tuning this parameter, you can control the smoothness or graininess of the final image, which can be crucial for achieving specific artistic effects.

InvSRSampler Output Parameters:

SAMPLER

The output parameter SAMPLER represents the configured sampler object that is used to perform the super-resolution sampling. This object encapsulates all the settings and configurations applied through the input parameters, and it is responsible for generating the high-resolution images. The SAMPLER output is crucial as it provides the means to execute the sampling process and obtain the desired visual results.

InvSRSampler Usage Tips:

• Experiment with the eta and s_noise parameters to find the perfect balance between image sharpness and artistic texture. Lower values can produce smoother images, while higher values may introduce more texture and variability.
• Utilize the configuration file (sample-sd-turbo.yaml) to fine-tune other aspects of the sampling process, such as the number of timesteps and guidance scale, to optimize the node's performance for specific tasks.

InvSRSampler Common Errors and Solutions:

Unsupported color fixing type: <color_fix>

• Explanation: This error occurs when an invalid color fixing type is specified in the configuration.
• Solution: Ensure that the color_fix parameter is set to a supported value, such as ycbcr or wavelet. If unsure, refer to the documentation for a list of valid options.

Configuration file not found

• Explanation: This error indicates that the specified configuration file could not be located.
• Solution: Verify that the cfg_path is correctly set to the location of the sample-sd-turbo.yaml file. Ensure that the file exists in the specified directory and that the path is correctly formatted.
