Deforum, Controlnet, Apple M1

[pjpmccarthy52]

Hi all, I just wanted to share my recent experience with Deforum & Controlnet.
I've successfully installed and have been happily using SD and Automatic1111 on my Apple M1 Studio. I've also been able to use Deforum to create several videos in 2D & 3D mode. More recently I watched some Youtube videos tutorials exploring Deforum and Controlnet.

My attempts to follow the tutorials resulted in errors. Today I did some additional troubleshooting and found that (2) extensions I had installed were causing the errors: model-keyword; sd-dynamic-prompts. Moving these extensions out of the SD extensions folder allowed me to run Deforum and Controlnet successfully.

Using Controlnet on the img2img tab of A1111 works fine with the extensions installed. And, using the above extensions in txt2img mode to generate prompts also works fine. I'm not sure if this is an Apple M1 issue or it might also affect SD on other platforms. I have now way of testing. Cheers and thank you for this software.
