If you miss Edgerunners, I would massively recommend Ghost in the Shell (2026)
What shenanigans do you predict Criston Cole will get up to next episode?
Impossible to get someone to shake their head "no"
I've tried using "shake their head", "turning head left and right repetitively", anything like this, it's weirdly impossible to get someone to shake their head in a video
I've had this be the case in several different videos, has anyone had anything similar? I'd really like to not have to use a video reference, as they seem to reduce the resolution of your output or something
plz help!
Seedance 2.5
July 29th
All hope is gone
Early July feels an eternity ago
August knocks, eager to kill any straggling hope
No whispers from Bytedance. Seedance 2.5 is as though dreamt in a moment of fever
Perhaps one day
One day
Seedance 2.5 Watch
July 23rd
Solidly in late July territory
No word or sighting of Seedance 2.5
All third-party provider sites display "Soon^(TM)" on their Generate buttons, but it speeds the clock no faster
Seedance 2.0 laughs in glee, watching Seedance 2.5 too scared to leave its nest
Time marches on
Is Seedance 2.5 ever going to release?
First it was July 11th, then it was delayed to July 16th, then it was delayed to July 20th, and here we are and it’s still not here
I expect it will release eventually, but the waiting is a bit of a pain
Using video reference makes output video low resolution
Has anyone else faced this issue?
On the official Dreamina website, on Sjinn, on piapi.ai, and on my own website I built for myself using an API, no matter the website, if I use a video reference, the output video is very low resolution
Whether the video is an extension, or whether its used as a motion capture reference, no matter, the output video is like 360p-looking
Has anyone else faced this? People like this poster don't seem to face this issue, so I'm curious how people are using reference videos to output normal 720p quality videos
I always prompt 4K at the end
My theory is on the Seedance backend, they reduce the resolution of the input video to save processing. But in doing so, the AI sees the lower resolution video, and outputs a low resolution video of its own to match, effectively
Fans being overly critical of House of the Dragon is a sort of post-traumatic reaction to Game of Thrones
It‘s like a relationship, or love
Game of Thrones was their first love. They trusted game of thrones, were fully invested in the story, and believed it was going somewhere
Then, out of nowhere, Game of Thrones abandons them! It betrays your trust, pulls the rug out from under them, treats you like an idiot, and ends your journey abruptly when you were expecting so much more!
Years go by, and you can’t get over it. How could Game of Thrones betray you like this!
Eventually a new suitor comes along. They’re called House of the Dragon, and a lot about them honestly reminds you of Game of Thrones. They seem to be genuinely interested in making things work too.
But Game of Thrones hurt you too much! Gone are the days of your earnest trust, you won’t be fooled again! House of the Dragon thinks you’re an idiot too, you just know it!
House of the Dragon tells you nice stories, and introduces you to new people, but you can’t trust it. You search for any flaw or mistake you can see in House of the Dragon, and endlessly criticize whenever you find one. You won’t be had for a fool again!
Deep down you feel maybe your criticism is a bit extreme, and maybe you should just relax and enjoy the ride. But Game of Thrones hurt you too much, you won’t be had again! You’re not an idiot!! You’ll show House of the Dragon!
Eventually House of the Dragon runs out of energy. It feels your constant anxiety and paranoia, and realises it can’t do anything to undo your feelings. Eventually House of the Dragon stops trying, realising you will never be satisfied, and you’ll always be comparing it to Game of Thrones, that deep down all you want is the early days of your time with Game of Thrones.
House of the Dragon eventually loses its steam, and you declare victory. You knew it, House of the Dragon was fake all along, just like Game of Thrones!! You saw right through them!
A few years later you look through old pictures of House of the Dragon. You’re surprised at how much of a warm feeling they bring. You wonder if you treated House of the Dragon a little harshly. But House of the Dragon is gone now, they left years ago.
You scroll through some old photos of House of the Dragon, and hit like.
I personally liked Season 3 Episode 1
It started pretty slow for the first half, and I wasn't 100% sure what was happening
But then it got to the second half or so, and there was the sick Corlys boat chase scene, and the chaos happening with the dragons, and I don't remember what else, but I was genuinely captivated the rest of the episode
I thought it was awesome overall
