Diagram 1254x1254

Reasons for Recommendation

  • Version update: The 11th version of the collection, adds pika_h3_flex_fl2va_v1_bf16; author states they did not train the original weights, only made a compatible version, and credited original authors item by item

  • Entire collection has accumulated 54262 downloads and 113 comments, this version has 51 downloads in 2 hours (only indicates attention level)

How to Use

  • Use ComfyUI's built-in LoRA loader to attach to the H3 base model, strength 1.0, steps 6–8; sampler, scheduler, and shift are not separately provided by the author for this version, can refer to er_sde + simple settings of other acceleration LoRAs on the same page

Diagram 1672x941

Reasons for Recommendation

  • New model; serves two scenarios: performing video-to-video at high resolution in the first stage, or performing second-stage upscaling on already generated videos
  • Author claims to have run 2.5 MP on an RTX TI GPU with 12 GB VRAM; nodes are published on Comfy Registry (comfyui-minimax-h3-temporal-window-spatial-tiles)
  • Author explicitly states it is not recommended for generating from scratch: generate the first stage normally, then use this for upscaling

How to Use

  • Install the author's nodes from Comfy Registry, import Minimax-H3_latent_upscaler.json; parameters such as tile size, window length, and denoising strength are not listed in the description, need to check settings within the workflow

Risks and Limitations

  • No visible examples (2 hidden due to rating), effect is only described in text by the author
  • Depends on the author's custom nodes and H3 model files, specific list needs to be verified by opening the workflow; this entry was not tested
