◎ What's New in v2.1.0

Release — Feb 26, 2026

9 new nodes, a complete Radiance Viewer overhaul, and requirements cleanup. 89/89 VFX audit tests pass.

◎ Special Thanks: To our amazing beta testers and the ComfyUI community for their invaluable feedback and bug reports in making v2.1.0 possible!
Radiance Viewer Overhaul
CDL export/import, GPU histogram (H key), fp32 pick buffer, LRU frame cache, Display-P3 detection, linear false color & zebra
Grade Match & LUT Pipeline
LAB shot-to-shot color matching, grade_info JSON roundtrip, Apply Grade Info node, LUT Bake (33³ .cube), LUT Apply with trilinear interp
Temporal Video Tools
Temporal Smooth — per-pixel EMA with motion-aware masking removes AI flicker. Flicker Analyze — measures frame-to-frame luma consistency
False Color as IMAGE
7-zone calibrated false-color (Crushed→Clipped) baked as IMAGE output — usable in headless batch pipelines without the viewer open
Blend Composite Node
8 blend modes: Normal, Add, Screen, Multiply, Overlay, Soft Light, Difference, Divide. Optional MASK pin for per-pixel coverage. HDR-safe
Sampler Pro v3.6
Fixed 6 critical bugs: sigma schedule off-by-one (BUG-28), AYS Flux anchors (BUG-33), guidance deep-copy overhead, double noise injection

Basic Workflows

HDR Image

Image → ImageToFloat32 → Float32ColorCorrect → HDRToneMap → SaveImageEXR

Film Look

Image → RadianceGrade → FXTDFilmGrain → FXTDLensEffects → RadianceViewer

Grade Matching (New v2.1)

SourceShot ──┐
             ├→ RadianceGradeMatch → matched_image
Reference  ──┘                    → grade_info → ApplyGradeInfo(OtherShot)

LUT Export for Resolve / Nuke

RadianceGrade → grade_info → RadianceLUTBake → grade.cube
any_image → RadianceLUTApply(grade.cube) → graded_image

Video Flicker Fix (New v2.1)

video_batch → RadianceFlickerAnalyze → flicker_report
video_batch → RadianceTemporalSmooth(alpha=0.6, motion_aware=True) → clean_video
