Does anyone know why load images/batch node keeps loading images out of sequence.

[Two82]

It's very strange it keeps taking the first 20 or so images and dispersing them throughout the sequence every 11th frame. I have tried a few different nodes. I tried both in the vhs package and inspire package. I also tried deleting everything in my comfyui inputs folder and created a new folder and pasted images there, then copied path to nodes widget. Nothing seems to help.

These I have circled should fall 3rd 4th 5th etc. in the sequence and I am confused why they're not. Thanks!

I guess the filenames are...

img1.png
img2.png
...
img9.png
img10.png
img11.png

In above case, the sorted order becoming...

img1.png
img10.png
img11.png
...
img2.png
img20.png
img21.png
...
img9.png
...

To avoid such case, you need to name it.

img001.png
img002.png
...
img009.png
img010.png
img011.png
...

Or the developers all over the world could finally start using natural sort order which properly sorts text with numbers... One can dream that one day one will never see wrongly sorted filenames, right?

Hmm I am using the correct notation but I still have the same issue. Or is the underscore somehow screwing it up

That seems to be an entirely separate issue. It's necessary to verify first whether the your image loader supports the sort feature.

Yeah you are right, I am using the Load Image Batch from Was Node suite. But it looked like a similar issue related to the default ordering method. I will try to contact the owner

Rename the image and use load images from path. that wolud be see the sequence images immediately.

Vid2imgs
remember rename the image name as sequence, use this command
ffmpeg -i download.mp4 %4d.png

After that set the image folder path into the load image node. like this.
