increasing the number of latents

[apollo01gaming]

Hello, thank you for this repo,
I just finished rendering my video. and I want to increase the number of latents (generated pictures) dramatically. (Morphing )
How do I do that?

I have looked into the other discussions made on this repo and I tried all of them. but can't quite make it work...

here is my test video.

Thank you very much.

Hello, you'll want to take a look at adding looping then. There's two different strategies implemented in the library now which you can find here.

If you create a large tensor of latents these functions can give you a sequence of latents that loops through them one-by-one.

You could, for example, replace the chroma latent sequence (which is used in the default examples) with this looping sequence and you'll have a video that morphs through your selected latents while still reacting to the beat.

This example demonstrates the use of looping latents, although it is a little complicated as it generates these loops for the sections that are found automatically (by laplacian segmentation). You could try adapting it to your own music.

@JCBrouwer Hello, thank you for your reply.
when i try to use kelp.py example. it giving me this error.
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'workspace/cyphept_kelp_drop_latents.npy'

Yeah, it's just what it says in the error: that file doesn't exist on your system. I chose some specific latents and saved them to the workspace/ folder. There's a couple other things like that hardcoded throughout the file, so you'll have to look for those and adjust them.

You can just generate some new latents there using ar.generate_latents() or just give it the latent_selection which was generated for you.
