ComfyUI Node: Seed Selector

Seed Selector:

The SeedSelector node is designed to provide a flexible way to manage the seed values used in your AI art generation process. This node allows you to choose between using a fixed seed or a random seed, giving you control over the reproducibility and variability of your generated images. By selecting a fixed seed, you can ensure that the same image is generated every time, which is useful for consistency and fine-tuning. On the other hand, using a random seed introduces variability, which can be beneficial for exploring different artistic possibilities and generating unique outputs. The SeedSelector node is essential for artists who want to balance between consistency and creativity in their AI-generated art.

Seed Selector Input Parameters:

mode

The mode parameter determines whether the seed used for image generation is fixed or random. When set to True, the node uses a random seed, introducing variability in the generated images. When set to False, the node uses a fixed seed, ensuring that the same image is generated every time. This parameter is a boolean with a default value of True. The label_on is "random" and the label_off is "fixed".

seed

The seed parameter specifies the seed value to be used when the mode is set to True (random). This parameter is an integer with a default value of 0, and it can range from 0 to 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. The seed value influences the randomness in the image generation process, and different seed values will produce different images.

fixed_seed

The fixed_seed parameter specifies the seed value to be used when the mode is set to False (fixed). This parameter is an integer with a default value of 0, and it can range from 0 to 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. Using a fixed seed ensures that the same image is generated every time, which is useful for consistency and reproducibility.

Seed Selector Output Parameters:

seed

The seed output parameter returns the seed value that was used for image generation. This can be either the seed value (if mode is True) or the fixed_seed value (if mode is False). This output is an integer and is crucial for understanding and reproducing the generated images.

Seed Selector Usage Tips:

• To ensure consistency in your generated images, set the mode to False and specify a fixed_seed value. This will help you reproduce the same image every time.
• If you want to explore different artistic possibilities, set the mode to True to use a random seed. This will introduce variability and generate unique images each time.
• Keep track of the seed values used for your favorite images. This will allow you to reproduce or tweak those images in the future by setting the mode to False and using the recorded seed value as the fixed_seed.

Seed Selector Common Errors and Solutions:

Invalid seed value

• Explanation: The seed value provided is outside the acceptable range.
• Solution: Ensure that the seed value is an integer between 0 and 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF.

Mode not recognized

• Explanation: The mode value provided is not a boolean.
• Solution: Ensure that the mode value is either True or False.

Fixed seed not used when mode is set to False

• Explanation: The node is not using the fixed seed value even though the mode is set to False.
• Solution: Double-check that the mode parameter is correctly set to False and that a valid fixed_seed value is provided.
