If there is any interest, let me know. 1326 lines finest python code made it possible. I have it up and running.

Looks very promising! How stable is it and what version of flame is needed? Does it work on Linuyx?

Excellentļ¼ At the same time, I am currently concerned about how to integrate āFacefusionā into Flame as a node or OFX plugin.

Yeah, it works pretty stable in the current version. It took me 4 weeks coding, testing, researching for hidden hints of some lost API documentation for Flame.
Now I just design any workflow in ComfyUI, export it for API use. drop it into a workflow folder beside the flamehook. If the workflow runs in general on the machine, there is no difference if flame triggers the roundtrip. Flame 2025.2.x uses Python 3.11.5. The only tricky part is to install Pillow (a function that handles Image reading/writing on python side) .

You can do.that?
You can use the PyClip node in batch to integrate facefusion
Installing any package that has not been blessed can be a catastrophe.
Add a feature request to install the package by default.

Python Packages inside Flame canāt be added. And thats good.
Really cool stuff!
Do you have any tutorial or guide on how to implement it within flame?
I think this a paid solution - which is a community service, but not a free one.
Hi everyone,
My name is Steffen (Xteve), and Iām the developer behind the H.265 Flame Importer (for Apple Silicon) and the ComfyUI Flame Integration . Over the past nine months, Iāve dedicated myself to creating tools that address real gaps in video workflow efficiency.
Why am I sharing this here?
While this forum isnāt a marketplace, Iām reaching out today with a unique proposition. Iām currently seeking partnerships, contract work, or distribution opportunities to sustain my development efforts and support my family. If you or your team need tailored software solutions, Iād be grateful to discuss how I can help.
What I Offer:
H.265 Flame Importer for Apple Silicon : A powerful tool for seamless H.265 video integration.
ComfyUI Flame Integration : Streamlined UI enhancements for Flame workflows.
Bundle Deal : Purchase the H.265 Importer, and receive the ComfyUI Integration at no additional cost.
Open To:
Contract Work : Letās collaborate on your software needs.
Distribution Partnerships : Help bring these tools to a wider audience.
Buyout Options : Open to discussing full acquisition of either tool.
A Personal Note:
As a developer and parent, my priority is ensuring stability for my 7-year-old daughter while continuing to innovate. If this community believes in these tools enough to support their development through donations, Iām committed to releasing both projects open-source here on the forum.
Please feel free to reach out via PMāIām happy to answer questions, provide demos, or discuss your vision.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Best regards,
Steffen Reimann (Xteve)

Flame ComfyUI aux let users load and execute self designed workflows within Autodesk Flame. For example rotoscoping now can be a complete automated process. Also depth and normal map generation is with one click on the selected clip done. The results come as png sequences back into the flame reels. I include a bunch of workflows as well.
To let ComfyUI generate sequences, the loading node MUST be the VHS LoadImagesPath!
ComfyUI is a node based AI Powerhouse. You can do anything, If you can think it!
Be aware, ComfyUI inference takes time. Especially when you work with 4k 50p as I do.
Automated processing frees the artist to be creative and not to do stupid time consuming tasks. In the browser front end you design your workflow, export as API, drop the json file into the workflow folder. Thats it! And if you want, you can load any onnx models in Comfy as well.
Another thing: I am testing now the capabilities within LAN. Means, Flame and ComfyUI donāt need be on the same box. Just put some dedicated AI machine with ComfyUI beside the Flame Box or the server room and it becomes clear what the future brings. And, from today I let the process run as background task. No more waiting for it to finish. The same background processing capability I implemented today into the H.265 Importer. Easy if you import directly from memory cards

Hello senior.
I donāt think H.265 Flame Importer may be a very promising project.
Firstly, Drastic has already provided a mature solution, namely āMediaReactor Workstation for Autodekā, which supports both macOS and Linux systems and allows Flame to read many media formats, including H.265 media. However, it has been discontinued since 2022 and only recently updated to support the new systems RHEL8 and RHEL9, indicating that it is not popular. Perhaps spending nearly $500 just to support H.265 is not affordable.
Secondly, I believe that for Flame in order to maintain its product competitiveness and market share, native support for H.265/HEVC may be a matter of time, as there are already many requests waiting for Flame to natively support H.265.
On the contrary, I believe that āComfyUI Flame Integrationā is a very good solution and look forward to continuous improvement and evolution.
After reading the introduction from the senior, I feel that you are an experienced programmer. Why not develop more efficient and practical OFX plugins for Flame and other OFX hosts? Perhaps this is also a good economic path!

Hi Ke Xian Liang,
thank you for your response. Yes I know Drastic. I just didnāt like the price tag.
And I also patiently rolling thumbs since 2018 for h265 support in Flame.
I wanted a solution. Today I compiled even an intel version.
Why I donāt develop OFX, good question. C++ takes more time to develop. And in this fast pacing AI times as we see the whole industry got a dip. If I am ready to release as a 1 man band an ofx plugin, itās propably obsolete. Of course, if someone orders that, I would do my best.
I used ComfyUI since 2 years now, and I really like it. Feels like my playground. If something doesnt work, I will at least try my best to make it work or find a workaround. And I love to automate workflows.
Cheers from Shanghai ā¦

Today I tested it with a remote ComfyUI machine. It works round and perfect in LAN environments. One more thing I have to try. comfyui run on a remote place in the internet (Google colab, Replicate ā¦) But inside LANā¦ itās really cool already.
it would be great to see a demo of real world usage of comfy ui and flame
