# LoadVideoDataSetFromFolder - ComfyUI Built-in Node Documentation

> Complete documentation for the LoadVideoDataSetFromFolder node in ComfyUI. Learn its inputs, outputs, parameters and usage.

Load a dataset of videos from a specified folder within the ComfyUI input directory. The node scans the folder for supported video files and returns lazy references — actual frames are decoded only when needed downstream.

## Inputs
