What this node does
ComfyTV stages outputCOMFYTV_IMAGE URL strings. Native nodes — IPAdapter, ControlNet, Save Image, VAE Encode — need IMAGE tensors. ← ComfyTV Image parses /view? on graph execute, loads PNG from output/ / input/ / temp, returns [1,H,W,C] float tensor.
Opposite of → ComfyTV Image: ComfyTV → native plugin ecosystem.
When to use it
- ComfyTV edit result → IPAdapter restyle
- ComfyTV output → native upscale / face restore
- End pipeline with Save Image
How it works
- Not a Stage — no Run, no snapshot write. Normal node on Queue.
_load_image_tensor: RGB; alpha available via ← ComfyTV Mask.- URL must be ComfyTV
/view?filename=…&subfolder=…&type=….
Types
Into ComfyTV: → ComfyTV Image (Run required). bridges.md
Parameters
image
Upstream COMFYTV_IMAGE. Empty → error.Outputs
Step by step
- ComfyTV chain produces COMFYTV_IMAGE (e.g. Upscale after Run).
- Add ← ComfyTV Image, wire.
- Connect to IPAdapter / Save Image.
- Queue full graph (not ComfyTV stage Run).
