| # Practical-RIFE Model Mirror |
|
|
| This repository is a **mirror** of the pretrained model weights used by |
| [Practical-RIFE](https://github.com/hzwer/Practical-RIFE), created to work around |
| Google Drive's download quota limits when running RIFE-based video interpolation |
| notebooks (e.g. in Google Colab). |
|
|
| ## Credit |
|
|
| All models and the underlying RIFE (Real-Time Intermediate Flow Estimation) method |
| belong to the original authors. This repo redistributes their released weights |
| for convenience and reliability only — no modifications have been made to the |
| model files themselves. |

|
|
| ## Usage |
|
|
| Download directly with `wget`/`curl`: |
|
|
| ```bash |
| wget https://huggingface.co/Bash2X/RIFE-Models/resolve/main/RIFE_v4.26.zip |
| ``` |
|
|
| Or with the `huggingface_hub` Python library: |
|
|
| ```python |
| from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download |
| |
| path = hf_hub_download( |
| repo_id="Bash2X/RIFE-Models", |
| filename="RIFE_v4.26.zip" |
| ) |
| ``` |
|
|
| ## Why this mirror exists |
|
|
| The original Practical-RIFE Colab notebook downloads models from a personal |
| Google Drive folder, which has a shared daily download quota. When too many |
| people run the notebook on the same day, downloads fail with a |
| `FileURLRetrievalError`. Hosting a mirror on Hugging Face avoids this issue |
| since Hugging Face doesn't impose the same per-file download caps. |
|

| This is an unofficial mirror maintained for convenience. It is not affiliated |
| with or endorsed by the original author. If the original author would prefer |
| this mirror not exist, please open an issue or contact the repo maintainer |
| and it will be taken down. |
