This new Outpainting Technique is INSANE - ControlNet 1.1.
TLDRIn this video, the presenter introduces an advanced outpainting technique using ControlNet 1.1 for AI art creation. They challenge themselves to explain the installation process in under 40 seconds and guide viewers through downloading necessary model files. The video demonstrates how to use ControlNet with the 'intent only' plus 'llama' model for cleaner and more concise results. The presenter shares their process of outpainting with a realistic 3.1 model, setting up resolution, denoising strength, and using the 'resize and fill' option for better image quality. They also show how to upscale images and outpaint images not originally created with Stable Diffusion, offering a comprehensive guide to enhancing AI art workflows.

Q & A
What is the main topic of the video?
-The main topic of the video is a new outpainting technique using ControlNet 1.1 for creating hyper-realistic art.
How long does the presenter challenge themselves to explain the installation of ControlNet?
-The presenter challenges themselves to explain the installation of ControlNet in 40 seconds or less.
What are the two files needed to install ControlNet?
-The two files needed for the installation are the 'pth' file and the 'yaml' file.
Where should the downloaded 'pth' and 'yaml' files be placed after downloading?
-The downloaded 'pth' and 'yaml' files should be placed in the 'stable Fusion folder under model control net'.
Which model does the presenter use for outpainting?
-The presenter uses the 'realistic 3.1' model for outpainting.
What is the purpose of using 'impant only' and 'llama' in combination?
-Using 'impant only' and 'llama' in combination aims to get the best results by combining the strengths of both AI models for inpaintings.
What resolution does the presenter set for the image during the outpainting process?
-The presenter sets the resolution to 1024 by 768 for the image during the outpainting process.
What is the recommended denoising strength when using ControlNet for outpainting?
-The recommended denoising strength is between 0.75 and 1, with 0.9 being used in the example.
How does the presenter upscale the image after outpainting?
-The presenter upscales the image by sending it to 'image to image', setting the resize to 2, and adjusting other settings such as disabling ControlNet and setting the denoising strength to 0.2.
What is the presenter's advice for outpainting images not created with Stable Diffusion?
-The presenter advises using 'inpaint only' and 'resize and refill' options, and knowing the current image resolution to outpaint images not created with Stable Diffusion.
What mistake did the presenter make in their last video, as pointed out by the community?
-The presenter mistakenly stated that the whole image would be down-sampled during inpainting, which is not the case when using a mask.
Outlines
๐จ 'Out Painting' with ControlNet
The video introduces a preferred technique for out painting using ControlNet, a tool that helps in filling in missing or masked parts of an image. The presenter challenges themselves to explain the installation process in under 40 seconds. The steps include installing ControlNet from the extensions menu, downloading the necessary .pth and .yaml files, and placing them in the correct folder. The video then proceeds to demonstrate the use of ControlNet with the 'Intent Only' and 'Llamas' models for inpainting, aiming for hyper-realistic results. The presenter sets up the resolution, denoising strength, and other parameters for optimal results. The final rendered image is showcased as an example of the technique's effectiveness.
๐ Upscaling and Text-to-Image Techniques
In the second paragraph, the script discusses methods for upscaling images and using text-to-image features with ControlNet. The presenter shares a simple workflow for upscaling using the 'Image to Image' function with specific settings like disabling ControlNet and adjusting the denoising strength. They also demonstrate how to inpainting images not originally created with Stable Diffusion by loading an image and setting the resolution. The results from using 'Inpaint Only' and 'Inpaint Plus Llamas' are compared, with a preference for the latter's cleaner and more realistic output. The video concludes with a prompt example ('girl in medieval city full Moon heavy rain') and acknowledges a mistake from a previous tutorial regarding the resolution of inpainted areas.
