I don't really "get" the key thing. If i try to reference a file folder I get the JavaScript emoji telling me that I'm stupid.

The key is the name of the storage. If you use FolderToImageStorage with key foo for example, you have to type key foo in ImageStorageExportLoop to get images. Don't use Primitive nodes as it will link a node from one chain to another, merging them into a single one.

The way your sample flow is set up, I can't even find the output frames in the comfy directory structure.

I forgot to place a SaveImage node 😅. The output of ImageStorageExportLoop is images so you can link it to any node accepting IMAGE

To that end I wonder if you could modify Mel's animation builder to accept a loopchain input, and do a pull request?

I can but idk if Mel would accept it. While it is true that Loopchain is kinda a derivative work, the code behind it is actually much more hacky. ComfyUI's workflow execution is linearity which means all unrelated nodes have to be programatically muted when Loopchain is executed (that is the reason you always see a very fast flashing effect on the screen).

Also, I'll try to hide the key thing as it seems to worsen the UX.

Hi.I have a question.I downloaded "Loopchain",before that I installed ComfyUI-Frame-Interpolation.And ComfyUI-Frame-Interpolation works. For the test, I downloaded images from the page "Fannovel16
/ComfyUI-Loopchain" page and placed them in "ComfyUI_windows_portable\ComfyUI\input\heads". Also downloaded the workflow.I enter my SD model, my Canny, but nothing happens. I get an error. There are nodes in the workflow that are not connected, how do I connect them? Or should they stay as they are? I tried to find some information about how to work with this extension, but nobody knows. I am not a programmer, I do video processing and animation generation/AnimateDiff/Deforum. Could you explain or describe how to make the "Loopchain" extension work?
Perhaps there is some description, or better video tutorial how to use the extension? Also read up on Civitay. There is one single image with small "Loup nodes", but I don't have them. I tried to find them, there are none. I hope for your answer. But of course it is better to visually see how it should be done, because not all programmers.

It's giving me this error:
