Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/Comfy-Org/ComfyUI_Nvidia_VFX_Nodes/issues/11

Execute the following commands in order:

Run the command in your embedded Python directory—for example, D:\ComfyUI_windows_portable\python_embeded.
To open a terminal in this location, hold Shift while right-clicking and select "Open in Terminal" from the context menu.
This command is designed for CMD. If you're using PowerShell, replace the initial python with .\python.exe.

  1. Upgrade pip and build tools

    • python -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel build
  2. Install missing dependencies required for compiling wheels

    • python -m pip install wheel-stub
    • python -m pip install nvidia-vfx OR
      alternative python -m pip install -U --no-build-isolation nvidia-vfx --index-url https://pypi.nvidia.com
      (Use this alternative command if you encounter issues with the first one)

Which directory should we be running that command from? Main folder, python_embedded, Custom Nodes or somewhere else?

i.e. should it be python_embedded\python.exe -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel build ? Or something different?

I know that might seem like a simple question but so many things need to be installed in different ways depending on where those dependencies need to end up, don't want to put them in the wrong place.

For all instances of error code -12, ensure that you are not running the application in a Docker environment. Additionally, verify that you are using the latest CUDA version compatible with your GPU model, and that all CUDA-dependent libraries match your currently installed CUDA version.
