Local Deployment: Running FreeVideo & Freefield on Windows using ComfyUI
Hardware Requirements
- Minimum Specifications (for video generation):
• GPU: 8 GB V_VRAM
• RAM: 16 GB - Recommended or Reference Specs:
eyes properly monitoring performance if targeting higher resolution like 768p:
• GPU: RTX 4060 Ti with 16 GB VRAM
• RAM: 32 GB
Installation & Launch Guide
- Install any required environment dependencies through the dedicated installer provided for Windows which automates package retrieval.
# General installation flow via GitHub source - Set up your local instance folder and prepare enough disk space to download models separately. (Note: Models such even MiniMax H3, LTX-2.5, and FLUX 3 Klein must be downloaded manually/separately).
- Integrate plugins into a working ComfyUI setup as FreeVideo operates specifically as a plugin for this engine.
- Configure model paths so that weights are distributed between memory types according been by way of hybrid attention mechanisms (distributing loads across VRAM, RAM, and Disk).
- Execute using standard CLI commands depending on chosen workflow targetss.

Optimization & Performance Tips
- Hybrid Memory Management: The underlying VDN-H3 or similar engines use an 8-step architecture with hybrid attention meant to distribute weight loading between video memory, system RAM, and storage during generation.
- Workflow Customization: Utilize ready-made ComfyUI workflows provided in the project repositories which allow for camera movement control, lip-syncing, and lighting adjustments without manual heavy lifting.
- Performance Benchmarking: eyes check your hardware against these metrics:

Bottom Line: Running Freefield locally ensures that all files, generated videos, and sensitive training data remain entirely on your own machine while providing access to high-end features like motion control and background removal via open source models.
