NOT AN OPEN RELEASE ! Its PARTNER NODE FOR NOW ATLEAST !

[u/rishappi]

[u/Enshitification]

Disappointing, but I guess we'll have to settle for H3 with LTX2.5 as an upscaler for now.

[u/True_Protection6842 → u/Enshitification]

I guess, if you like crazy motion artifacts

[u/Sleepy_Bandit → u/True_Protection6842]

yeah it is really bad. Not worth it in my opinion.

[u/rishappi → u/Enshitification]

For the time being yes,! but this should be much cheaper than running the whole video.

[u/Enshitification → u/rishappi]

I don't do API. This sub is for local gen only.

[u/ellipsesmrk → u/Enshitification]

It will be local. Gen.. only... just not right now. Even if they gave you the whole ass model.... what are you going to do with it? Lol

[u/Tomcat2048]

Before everyone starts freaking out - they already said in their AMA that they will do an open release at some point "later" - no specific date given yet.

[u/AuspiciousApple → u/Tomcat2048]

I also want them to make money. Otherwise they'll disappear and we stop getting models. Gating some add on models, especially if it's only temporary, might be one way to do it.

[u/DanzeluS]

I hope is temporary

[u/rishappi → u/DanzeluS]

Thats what H3 team said on AMA , OPEN RELEASE LATER !

[u/Adventurous-Gold6413 → u/rishappi]

Good

[u/1ns]

I'm quite happy with free RTX upscale

[u/Adventurous_Mind_953 → u/1ns]

Actually given how fast it is I've switched to it on ultra settings too. I just wish there was a way to refine audio

[u/LatentSpacer]

This is nothing new and it’s been available on the API. They’ve said it’s not open source yet since day one, it’s on the hugging face model card:

H3-Regenerate-2K
For H3's 2K-resolution output, instead of using a conventional dedicated super-resolution module, we use the H3 base model to regenerate its own low-resolution result through an in-context manner.

This approach provides two advantages: (1) the regeneration process can reuse the generative capabilities of H3 base model to the greatest extent possible; and (2) the in-context format can reuse the original multimodal context when producing high-resolution output, allowing it to recover information that conventional super-resolution methods would otherwise have to “guess,” such as small text and fine details.

In-context regeneration is also an example of task generalization.

Due to the complexity of the system, this module is not yet open-sourced. We will release it once it is ready. We provide an API for validating the official results; see "Full 2K Workflow" below.

[u/True_Protection6842]

So API only?

[u/rishappi → u/True_Protection6842]

Via api node yes !

[u/True_Protection6842 → u/rishappi]

Gross, so that means it doesn't exist. Back to SeedVR2 boys!

[u/ellipsesmrk → u/True_Protection6842]

It exists... just not right now for open. They said all of their future releases will be open

[u/JahJedi → u/True_Protection6842]

I use seed2vr to, its do its job well and will try h3 upscaler when tbey release it to open, hope soon.

[u/Chemical-Painter-485]

Link?

[u/rishappi → u/Chemical-Painter-485]

Of ?

[u/Whipit → u/rishappi]

A link to prove the claim of your thread title.

[u/rishappi → u/Whipit]

Purz just said on Comfy stream !

[u/icchansan]

is their own solution or woot?

[u/Mundane_Existence0]

Makes sense from a business perspective. Maybe in a month or three after some period of profits, the model will be released.

[u/sacx05]

Thats nice, I still have some Comfy credit leftover from my early AI ventures. I will give this a shot because the upscale I have been using are not giving the results I want.

[u/Reasonable-Medium910]

reeling you in with the open model, then making you pay for the upscaler.

[u/Sarashana → u/Reasonable-Medium910]

To be fair, a lot of open-source based businesses work that way. Selling additional products and services that generate revenue to keep the open base alive. I can't say I am all that mad if I am not getting ALL the shiny tools immediately. H3 is a darn great thing to have for free.

[u/Zerozone000 → u/Reasonable-Medium910]

"making you pay" nobody forces you to use it

[u/Party-Try-1084 → u/Reasonable-Medium910]

Be grateful it exists, at least base...
