# Vidu Q1 - Foundation video generation

> Generate video from text, images, reference images, start-end frames, and extend existing clips using Vidu Q1 in ComfyUI

Vidu Q1 is the first-generation Vidu model that handles all core video generation types. It offers a broad range of input modes — text, image, reference images, start-and-end frames, and video extension — making it a reliable choice for general-purpose production where speed and expressiveness are balanced.

## Key capabilities

* **Five generation modes** — Text-to-video, image-to-video, reference-to-video (up to 7 images), start-end-to-video, and video extension
* **Flexible subject reference** — Maintain character and scene identity across multi-reference inputs
* **Video extension** — Extend existing video clips with coherent continuation
* **Balanced performance** — Reliable quality suitable for a wide range of production scenarios

> **Local users**
>
> Make sure your ComfyUI is updated.
>
> * [Download ComfyUI](https://www.comfy.org/download)
> * [Update Guide](https://docs.comfy.org/installation/update_comfyui.md)
>
> Workflows in this guide can be found in the [Workflow Templates](https://docs.comfy.org/interface/features/template.md).
> If you can't find them in the template, your ComfyUI may be outdated.
>
> If nodes are missing when loading a workflow, possible reasons:
>
> 1. You are not using the latest ComfyUI version (Nightly version)
> 2. Some nodes failed to import at startup
>
> **Cloud users**
>
> * [Cloud](https://cloud.comfy.org) will update after ComfyUI stable release.
>
> So, if you find any core node missing in this document, it might be because the new core nodes have not yet been released in the latest stable version. Please wait for the next stable release.
