Image to Video Generation (happyhorse-1.0-i2v)#

Generate video from a first-frame image. Output aspect ratio automatically follows the input image.

First-frame to Video#

bash

python3 {baseDir}/scripts/happyhorse-magic.py image2video-gen --prompt "一只猫在草地上奔跑" --first-frame "https://example.com/cat.png" --resolution "720P" --duration 5
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/happyhorse-magic.py image2video-gen --first-frame "https://example.com/landscape.jpg" --resolution "1080P" --duration 10
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/happyhorse-magic.py image2video-gen --prompt "花朵缓缓绽放" --first-frame "https://example.com/flower.png" --duration 8 --no-watermark

Options#

• --prompt: Text prompt for video generation (optional but recommended)
• --first-frame: First frame image URL (required). Format: JPEG/JPG/PNG/WEBP, min 300px per side, max 10MB.
• --resolution: Video resolution - 720P or 1080P (default: 1080P). Output ratio follows input image.
• --duration: Video duration in seconds, 3-15 (default: 5)
• --no-watermark: Disable "Happy Horse" watermark (default: enabled)
• --seed: Random seed for reproducibility [0, 2147483647]

Note: There is no --ratio parameter. The output video aspect ratio automatically follows the input first-frame image.

Reference to Video Generation (happyhorse-1.0-r2v)#

Generate video from reference images as character/object sources. Use "character1", "character2", etc. in the prompt to reference images by their array order.

Multi-character Reference#

bash

python3 {baseDir}/scripts/happyhorse-magic.py reference2video-gen --prompt "身着红色旗袍的女性character1，镜头以侧面中景勾勒旗袍修身剪裁" --reference-images "https://example.com/girl.jpg" --resolution "720P" --ratio "16:9" --duration 5
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/happyhorse-magic.py reference2video-gen --prompt "身着红色旗袍的女性character1，轻抬玉手展开折扇character2时流苏耳坠character3随头部转动轻盈摆动" --reference-images "https://example.com/girl.jpg" "https://example.com/fan.jpg" "https://example.com/earrings.jpg" --resolution "720P" --ratio "16:9" --duration 5
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/happyhorse-magic.py reference2video-gen --prompt "character1在海边散步，阳光洒在沙滩上" --reference-images "https://example.com/person.png" --resolution "1080P" --ratio "16:9" --duration 10

Options#

• --prompt: Text prompt with character references (required, max 5000 non-Chinese chars). Use "character1/character2/..." to reference images in array order.
• --reference-images: Reference image URLs (required, 1-9 images). The 1st image = character1, 2nd = character2, etc.
• --resolution: Video resolution - 720P or 1080P (default: 1080P)
• --ratio: Aspect ratio - 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4 (default: 16:9)
• --duration: Video duration in seconds, 3-15 (default: 5)
• --no-watermark: Disable "Happy Horse" watermark (default: enabled)
• --seed: Random seed for reproducibility [0, 2147483647]

Note: Reference images should have short side >= 400px. Avoid low-resolution, blurry, or heavily compressed images.

Video Editing (happyhorse-1.0-video-edit)#

Edit existing videos with text instructions and optional reference images. Supports style transfer, local replacement, and other editing tasks.

Instruction-based Editing#

bash
