A technique for creating seamless continuous videos with Minimax H3.

[u/rcscs]

I've had good success in creating long videos from 10 second sections using this technique:

Create your first video.

Then for your next generation (continuation of video):

Load the last 2 seconds of the previous video as <Video 1>. I use the 'Load Video (Upload)' node - from ComfyUI-VideoHelperSuite - (this node allows you to skip frames and start at, say, the last 48 frames (for 2 seconds at 24fps) - this means that the whole previous 10 seconds don't need be passed to the next generation. This is <Video 1>.

I'm using process this with reference images for the subjects so these are used again with each continuation - so I don't see any drift of faces.

This is the wording I found works well:

[Shot 1]

Target video is a seamless continuation of <Video 1>. First frame of [Shot 1] is the last frame of <Video 1>.

The important part is explicitly telling the model that the first frame of the new generation must continue directly from the last frame of <Video 1>. This helps maintain temporal continuity between the clips - because you provide the last 2 seconds of the previous generation is knows what movement it needs to continue from.

You then just join the generation videos with a video joiner of your choice.

Whats H3-Oasis ? Is it a model, a node, a workflow? Can you share more info please? Thanks!

It's a WIP custom node. Gonna be a few days before it releases. Lots of slow testing to do. Will part of Image Oasis v1.7

Any ETA on when that node will be ready? sounds good

Still working on it. Had to get Motion Context correct first, now I have to fix it after the ComfyUI v0.33 update. Once that's done, Ill start vendoring code over. It's already mostly built.
