How to use "Guided Images"

[flyYuX]

What should the "Images to use for keyframe guidance"format look like.
Error: 'The images set for use with keyframe-guidance are not in a proper JSON format'. Check your schedules/ init values please. Also make sure you don't have a backwards slash in any of your PATHs - use / instead of . Full error message is in your terminal/ cli.
Max frames is 120.I don't understand what is "Set your total number of keyframes to be 21 more than the last inserted keyframe image."

Change all \'s in your paths with /'s like you have in frame 0. The others are general warnings

yeah that did not fix the issue for me.
{
"0": ""C:/Users/xxx/Videos/beatitimages/SOBEATITMJ00.png"",
"19": ""C:/Users/xxx/Videos/beatitimages/SOBEATITMJ19.png"",
"35": ""C:/Users/xxx/Videos/beatitimages/SOBEATITMJ35.png"",
"58": ""C:/Users/xxx/Videos/beatitimages/SOBEATITMJ58.png"",
"83": ""C:/Users/xxx/Videos/beatitimages/SOBEATITMJ83.png""
}

even tried without a second set of the quotation marks like the initial values were set at- no dice

Hello, good afternoon, did you find a solution? I have the same problem...

This is true as you stated. But this alone will not make this work. There is a requirement for more inputs as follows:
{
"0": "http://n7mwh.bounceme.net/profile/Photo.jpg",
"max_f/4-5": "http://n7mwh.bounceme.net/profile/antenna1.jpg",
"max_f/2-10": "http://n7mwh.bounceme.net/profile/antenna1.jpg",
"3*max_f/4-15": "https://wallpapercave.com/wp/wp4018835.png",
"max_f-20": "https://wallpapercave.com/wp/wp4018835.png"
}

But understanding how to use the additional settings above matters alot. But this does function along with something like this in prompts:
{
"0": "tiny cute bunny, vibrant diffraction, highly detailed, intricate, ultra hd, sharp photo, crepuscular rays, in focus",
"30": "anthropomorphic clean cat, surrounded by fractals, epic angle and pose, symmetrical, 3d, depth of field",
"60": "a beautiful coconut --neg photo, realistic",
"90": "a beautiful durian, award winning photography"
}
Assuming a local file in the same format will function which does for me. We only need a better understanding or a tutorial of how these functions work. It's complicated.

Can someone explain how I should proceed if I have a different cadence from 1? For example, if I have cadence set on 4, how should I take that into account? Should the last keyframe be at 21 frames from the last frame or at 48 frames? And regarding the seed schedule, how can I calculate how many frames I should set for the starting seed?

Last image should match first image
