Video Transcription

  • 00:00:00 Greetings everyone. Today I am going  to introduce you to MimicPC. MimicPC  

  • 00:00:05 is a cloud service that lets you use AI  applications seamlessly in your browser,  

  • 00:00:12 while everything runs on remote cloud servers,  providing permanent storage as well. So,  

  • 00:00:19 I have prepared this post where you will find  relevant links and explanations. This is a  

  • 00:00:25 public post. The link of the post will be in the  description of the video. So, how are you going  

  • 00:00:30 to register? Open this link. Then you can either  register by email or using your Google account,  

  • 00:00:37 which I am going to use my Google account.  Continue with Google. I will use my email.  

  • 00:00:42 Continue. When you register first time, they will  give you 50 cents. You can set a password to login  

  • 00:00:50 also, if you wish. I am just going to skip it  because I have used the Google account. And on  

  • 00:00:54 this screen you will see that I have balance. I  can add balance from add funds from here. Also,  

  • 00:01:00 you will see that they are giving us  50 gigabytes storage here. You see,  

  • 00:01:05 this is a permanent storage. Whatever the file I  upload, my models, my generated images, my videos,  

  • 00:01:11 whatever, they will be permanently saved. And when  I am using next time, they will be there. Also,  

  • 00:01:17 I will be able to access my files without spending  any money, without starting any service. This  

  • 00:01:24 is a very, very good deal. They are giving 50  gigabytes. And you can also upgrade the storage  

  • 00:01:30 if you need. You see, you can upgrade it to 150  gigabytes, 250, and so on. This is a very cool  

  • 00:01:36 feature. So, this is the main screen. You can go  to the add new app and select the existing apps  

  • 00:01:43 from here. You see Automatic1111 web UI, Fooocus.  Then there is RVC. You can also search here,  

  • 00:01:50 like Whisper. Let's search it. Okay, looks like  the search is not working very well. There is  

  • 00:01:55 ComfyUI. You can install ComfyUI, load  your workflows and use them. You can use Face  

  • 00:02:01 Fusion, Chatbot, AI Toolkit, and ChatTTS and  others. They are keep adding new applications  

  • 00:02:09 to here. Moreover, they have a Discord server.  When you join their Discord server from this link,  

  • 00:02:15 you will get into this page. And in this page,  there are free workflows. So, you can use the  

  • 00:02:21 free workflows of other people. You can chat with  the developers. Ask your questions and anything.  

  • 00:02:27 This is very, very useful. So, let's continue.  I am going to show a few applications in this  

  • 00:02:33 tutorial. First of all, the CogVideoX-Fun. This  is the latest open source. The very best open  

  • 00:02:40 source image to video model. So, how you are  going to start it. There is a quick link here.  

  • 00:02:45 This is a shared workflow. You can also share  your workflows. I will click apply from here,  

  • 00:02:51 and I am logged into my account. Then it will ask  me to select a GPU. There are several tier GPUs,  

  • 00:02:59 as you are seeing right now. Medium, large, large  pro, ultra, and mini. Based on the workflow that  

  • 00:03:05 you are going to use. You need to select accurate  hardware. Since CogVideoX is extremely hardware  

  • 00:03:11 demanding. I am going to use ultra. Ultra  gives me L40s, 48 gigabyte GPU. This is a very,  

  • 00:03:17 very powerful GPU. Then you can set your machine stop after certain minutes. You can set automatic  

  • 00:03:24 extension. This is very useful if you forget to  turn off your machine, it will be automatically stopped.  

  • 00:03:29 You see, there is automatic stop as well. So,  let's click the create and start. It will start  

  • 00:03:34 the machine. This is going to auto load models  from their system since this is a shared workflow,  

  • 00:03:41 and in the right panel you see my files are here.  All of the files that I have used will be saved  

  • 00:03:47 here entirely, and I will be able to access  them. So, let's return back to our dashboard,  

  • 00:03:53 and this is the newest machine that, it is getting  started. So, we are waiting. I suggest you to  

  • 00:04:00 name them to not forget them. So, click this  icon and let's give CogVideoX fun model. So,  

  • 00:04:07 you should name them to remember them later. And  if you want to access their files, you see there  

  • 00:04:13 is go to manage, when you go to manage, you will  see all of your files here without starting them.  

  • 00:04:18 Let me show you. For example, in this machine,  I have generated some videos. Go to manage. This  

  • 00:04:23 machine is not started, so I am not using any of  my credits. And in the output. In the right panel,  

  • 00:04:29 you see the videos that I have generated. For  example, I can download this video and show you  

  • 00:04:35 that I have generated. Let's start it. You see,  this was animated video from a static image,  

  • 00:04:41 so I can access all of my files from here. I can  upload models according to my needs. You see,  

  • 00:04:48 there is upload icon here. So, go to the models  and click upload. You can also download models  

  • 00:04:54 from remote servers. So, when I click here. It  will allow me to choose either from my computer  

  • 00:05:00 or upload from URL. Like, you can upload  from HuggingFace repository, from CivitAI,  

  • 00:05:07 or similar FTP supporting servers with direct  URLs. And my machine has started. You see,  

  • 00:05:14 I click operate and this is the CogVideoX fan  model. This is using the ComfyUI as a backend. So,  

  • 00:05:23 you don't need to do anything actually. Okay.  Looks like this link has been changed to  

  • 00:05:29 something else. It says FLUX model, which is  not supposed to happen. See, I will fix this  

  • 00:05:35 link. Yes, this is CogVideoX. Maybe I started the  inaccurate one. Let's start this one. Apply. And  

  • 00:05:41 let's select the hardware as Ultra. Create and  start. Maybe I clicked the inaccurate link. I'm  

  • 00:05:47 not sure. Okay. Now it's starting. Return back to  our session. So, this is getting started. This was  

  • 00:05:54 FLUX. Don't worry. I will fix this link if it is not  the CogVideoX model. Okay. This time we got the  

  • 00:06:00 accurate model. So, also I am going to share this  another machine with you, and I am going to show  

  • 00:06:06 you how to share. You see, there is share option.  Let's click this, and I will say create image. So,  

  • 00:06:12 this way I will be able to share my image with  you, and you will be able to use it. Let's  

  • 00:06:19 name this as FLUX. Okay. You can also add image  description. I will just save. And then I will 

  • 00:06:26 have this link, and I am going to add it here, so  you can also access it quickly. Let's add it here.  

  • 00:06:32 So, now when you open this link that I have  shared, you will be able to use the workflow  

  • 00:06:38 that I have. And where was it? Let's go back to  our operate. It was here. Let's see. And yes,  

  • 00:06:45 for example, this is using FLUX model right  now. You can also use all other models that  

  • 00:06:51 are shared in their system. So, this is how their  system works. This is just amazing. For example,  

  • 00:06:57 let's use this FP8 model and generate an image,  and let's return back to our video model. So,  

  • 00:07:04 this is the CogVideoX model. Let's upload an  image. So, I'm going to animate this image as  

  • 00:07:10 an example, and how you need to prompt. This  is still in research. I am also not sure how  

  • 00:07:18 exactly to prompt. I have made some testing, and  I have prepared a quick prompt for you. You see,  

  • 00:07:24 you can use POE and Claude 3.5 or ChatGPT or  Gemini to generate a caption. I have written  

  • 00:07:32 a quick prompt here. So, let's write the prompt  here. This is a free version that is allowing you  

  • 00:07:39 to use, free. Upload your image from your computer  and get a caption. However, as I said, not all of  

  • 00:07:47 the descriptions that it generates works. So, this  is somewhat you need to get experience. I am still  

  • 00:07:53 not sure. So, let's copy this one. Let's return  back and paste your prompt here. That is all you  

  • 00:07:59 need to do. Then click Queue prompt. It will load the  model and generate a video from this. And when we  

  • 00:08:06 return back to our ComfyUI workflow with FLUX. It  generated the image. However, it is broken because  

  • 00:08:13 FLUX model doesn't work like this. You need to  set the CFG 1 and we need to set the resolution  

  • 00:08:19 to like 1024 to let's see 1024, 1024. Actually, I will  update my image so it can be like this. Then  

  • 00:08:30 as a sampler, I find that iPNDM is working  best. So, let's generate another image. Now it  

  • 00:08:37 should be accurate. You see, the speed is really,  really good. This is running on a cloud machine,  

  • 00:08:42 not on my computer, and image is generated.  Now I am going to share this. Actually see,  

  • 00:08:49 you do not have enough storage to share. Okay,  I need to expand my storage. So how I can expand  

  • 00:08:55 my storage. I'm going to delete some of the  applications that I have. So, when I delete them,  

  • 00:09:00 they will empty my storage. Delete, delete, and  it's also delete this one for now. Okay, I have  

  • 00:09:07 got more storage as I delete other ones. They  will be also fixed. Okay. And this was another  

  • 00:09:15 one started. So, let's see which ones are, which  ones so let's delete this one. Okay. It's okay.  

  • 00:09:22 Ok this is gone. Accurate image. Return back to  this one. This is also accurate one. It is working  

  • 00:09:28 fine. So, I want to share this workflow with you  as a FLUX development model. FP8. You can also use  

  • 00:09:35 this on less powerful hardwares, cheaper ones.  So, I am going to share this as an image. Yes,  

  • 00:09:42 not important. FLUX dev. Okay, save and share.  Okay, I can share indefinitely. Create sharing,  

  • 00:09:50 copy. That's it. And now once you click this new app,  it should work. So, this is how you can share  

  • 00:09:58 applications. You also don't need to use  mine, why? Because, as I said, official  

  • 00:10:04 applications already have them. For example,  let's also make example of Automatic1111 web UI,  

  • 00:10:09 and this can run pretty much on every hardware.  For example, let's start with this T4. Create  

  • 00:10:16 and start Auto1111 web UI. We should also  name it as Auto1111 web UI. Okay, actually  

  • 00:10:22 it shows that the name. Then let's create another  application as new application and Fooocus for  

  • 00:10:28 example. You can also use Whisper. Actually let's  also make a Whisper example. Get started. Create.  

  • 00:10:35 Whisper also runs on all of the hardware, and  let's also make another one as Fooocus. You see  

  • 00:10:41 the logic is same. You can also upload your  models, your configurations, everything works,  

  • 00:10:47 everything is saved in your permanent storage.  They give you 50 gigabytes of permanent storage  

  • 00:10:53 every month, as I said, for free. And this was our  FLUX model. Until you stop your running instance,  

  • 00:11:00 it will use your credits, but once you stop it,  it will give back your credits. So, when you  

  • 00:11:06 first time started, it will deduct your credits  from your account, but when you stop it back, it  

  • 00:11:12 will return back the remaining time. So, what does  this mean? Let me show you. Let's refresh. I have  

  • 00:11:17 currently around 9 dollars. So, when I stopped  this one, it should return back to my credits. So,  

  • 00:11:24 you see, my credits are returned back. This is how  their system works. And on this page, you see home,  

  • 00:11:31 mini PC dashboard, it shows which instances  are running right now. So, I have CogVideoX,  

  • 00:11:38 Automatic1111 web UI, Whisper web UI, and Fooocus.  Let's close all of them because we can reconnect  

  • 00:11:44 them. Actually, this is working. So, let's just  keep it as it is. Close all other ones. And for  

  • 00:11:50 example, let's go to the this one. Auto1111 Web UI. Starting. So it is started.

  • 00:11:55 So in here I can use all these models. You see they are all added here. This is just amazing.

  • 00:12:01 You can select any model and use directly.

  • 00:12:03 For example lets select one of the models from here. For example ColorFull XL V6.

  • 00:12:09 You can also use your own models, CivitAI models Hugging Face models, how you can use?

  • 00:12:18 I am going to show example from Hugging Face. For example RealVis XL V5

  • 00:12:22 and you want to use this model, go to the  RealVis XL version 5 fp16. Copy download link  

  • 00:12:29 and go back here and in the models click here,  and this goes into the Stable Diffusion folder,  

  • 00:12:35 as you know it. Click upload. I am going to upload  it from remote server like this. So, you see, this  

  • 00:12:40 is the download URL. Click upload and just wait,  it will upload it. Unfortunately, it doesn't show  

  • 00:12:47 the status, so you need to wait the upload to be  completed. I think it is going to show in the logs  

  • 00:12:54 or somewhere. Let's see, it doesn't show here. It  was showing somewhere. Okay, I think you need to  

  • 00:13:00 click here and just wait until it is completed.  So, let's go back to models and close this  

  • 00:13:07 upload icon. Let's go back to Stable Diffusion  and refresh. So, you just need to wait until it is  

  • 00:13:13 completed. I told this to the developers. I think  they will add it. Currently SDXL Colorful XL is  

  • 00:13:19 loaded, a car. Okay, let's go to a simple thing,  a car. Let's select one of the best sampler, UniPC,  

  • 00:13:26 and 1024 like this. Let's generate an image. This  is SDXL model. It shows that SDXL, and our video  

  • 00:13:34 is still getting generated. Unfortunately, this  video model extremely demanding and slow, but I  

  • 00:13:41 think there will be better models soon coming  up. So, you can also use them. And I was also  

  • 00:13:47 going to show you LivePortrait video to video for  example. Let's go to the video to video. Let's  

  • 00:13:53 open this image, and also there is image to video LivePortrait. Let's also open them.  

  • 00:13:59 You just need to click apply. You can use a lesser  hardware here, like large pro. Create. And here  

  • 00:14:06 apply. Okay. And let's also do large pro. See, it  started. Yes, here. Since I am starting multiple  

  • 00:14:14 things, it may be confusing but when you start one by  one you won't get confused. It is just so easy,  

  • 00:14:19 and it is getting started. And meanwhile, let's  look at the Auto111 web UI. Okay. This  

  • 00:14:25 image is generated with this model and our model  arrived here. You see, it was downloaded from the  

  • 00:14:30 HuggingFace. So, when I refresh here, I should be  able to see it. It is getting, refreshed. Yes. Let's  

  • 00:14:36 type its name and you see RealVis XL arrived.  This is permanently saved in my folders right now.  

  • 00:14:43 So, it is getting loaded. Just wait until the  load completed. This is the same as in Fooocus,  

  • 00:14:50 in ComfyUI. You see, I can connect to the  Fooocus, and I can just start using it.  

  • 00:14:55 And there is also a Whisper web UI. I can start  using it. For example, this is the Fooocus. Let's  

  • 00:15:00 use the advanced. And in here, models, all of  the models are also here. However, I also need to  

  • 00:15:07 download the model that I want into here as well.  So, currently it is SDXL base, like car. It will  

  • 00:15:13 just start generating. Fooocus. And there is also a  Whisper web UI, as you are seeing right now. Just  

  • 00:15:19 select an example video, upload it, and generate  subtitle. It will automatically extract the audio  

  • 00:15:25 and generate subtitle. This is Whisper web UI.  I'm not going to delve into how to use these  

  • 00:15:31 applications. They are separate applications, but  I am just showing you how you can use Mimic PC.  

  • 00:15:37 Everything is running on remote server, but I am  using as it is on my PC. You see, and it doesn't  

  • 00:15:42 install anything. Because this is running on my  browser, nothing is installed into my browser or  

  • 00:15:48 on my computer. All of this is running on a remote  cloud server. And the images are getting generated  

  • 00:15:54 in the Fooocus web UI. Okay. So, this is loaded  screen of the LivePortrait. For example, this is  

  • 00:16:03 from image to video. Okay. Let's see. Yes. I have  demo materials on my computer. So, let's say this  

  • 00:16:09 is the image. Let's load a video like this. This  is the latest version of the LivePortrait. So, you  

  • 00:16:15 can change the like, ee, woo, and other things of  the image, like here. Let's make it more smiling.  

  • 00:16:23 Okay. There is expression editor. Then just let's  queue the prompt and let's wait it. And this is  

  • 00:16:29 another LivePortrait. This is only image. Okay.  So, you can play with this and see how they are  

  • 00:16:35 working. Let's queue prompt. And the Whispers also  generated the transcription. It's pretty fast.  

  • 00:16:41 Okay. This file, this audio, I think. Yes. This  is one. Okay. Let's generate subtitle. It should  

  • 00:16:47 be very fast after first time. Yes. You see, it  is almost instant. So, it generated the subtitle.  

  • 00:16:53 You can also download the subtitle from here. Just  open it and you see, this is the subtitle. Okay.  

  • 00:16:59 Everything is working. This also generated a GIF  image from the uploaded image. You see, like this.  

  • 00:17:05 So, it is like blinking its eye. You see, you can  also set another things here. For example, let's  

  • 00:17:12 set 10 smile or 1.3. Let's  queue prompt. This should be pretty fast. Yes.  

  • 00:17:17 Now it is also smiling. Okay. Yeah. Pretty good.  You see. Both smiling and blinking. And here the  

  • 00:17:23 original image. And this was expression transfer  from video. Okay. Currently it doesn't save the  

  • 00:17:30 audio. So, you also need to save the audio. How  you gonna save it? To save the audio, you just  

  • 00:17:36 drag and drop the audio and requeue. By the way,  everything will be in the output folder. So, you  

  • 00:17:42 can also download them later. Okay. It is getting  generated. And let's look at our image animation.  

  • 00:17:49 Yes. You see, this static image, turned it into  this video. Okay. Yeah. It's a very weird video.  

  • 00:17:56 As I said, how you prompt is a mystery right  now. People are working on them. But my prompt  

  • 00:18:03 generation also works decently. It really animated  the image into this video. This is a free video.  

  • 00:18:10 You don't wait. You just run it on Mimic PC. You  can also run it on your computer if your computer

  • 00:18:48 And this is how you use Mimic PC. I hope you  have enjoyed. Please ask any questions. Please  

  • 00:18:55 join their Discord server and chat with the  developers and the experts there. They keep  

  • 00:19:01 adding new features, new amazing stuff. So, you  can use all of the applications and also your own  

  • 00:19:08 workflows with ComfyUI. It also has a default  ComfyUI. So, go to ComfyUI. Go to ComfyUI from  

  • 00:19:14 here and get started. This will start a fresh  ComfyUI for you. Let's start it to show. Then  

  • 00:19:20 you can load your configurations. It comes with  so many pre-installed features. For example,  

  • 00:19:26 in the Automatic1111 web UI, there are  ControlNet, After Detailer, you see Cutoff,  

  • 00:19:32 LLuL, I don't even know this. And there are some  other things like Segment Anything. So, it is  

  • 00:19:37 not a default one. It comes with extra features,  like Deforum. Photopea, OpenPose editor, Infinite   

  • 00:19:45 Zoom. There is also extensions tab here, which  you can use, tagger. So, it is not a default. It  

  • 00:19:52 is a more advanced version with extra features.  Let's look at the ComfyUI as well. A default  

  • 00:19:58 ComfyUI. It is getting started right now. And  this is the default ComfyUI. You can select  

  • 00:20:03 all the models as well. So, these are all shared  models. It also has ComfyUI manager installed,  

  • 00:20:11 as you are seeing. So, you can  load your configs and use them as it is in your  

  • 00:20:18 PC. However, this is running on a remote server.  So, it is working great. And that's it. I hope you  

  • 00:20:25 have enjoyed. Hopefully see you in another amazing  tutorial. I am working on fine tuning of FLUX. I  

  • 00:20:31 am doing a lot of testing right now. Testing batch  size 7. I am also running different testings,  

  • 00:20:37 experimentation and trainings to further improve my SDXL fine tuning. Hopefully see you later.
