Nodes¶
All nodes appear under the H3 Continuity category.
H3 Timeline¶
The heart of the pack. Draw clips in the Studio; each queued run renders the next clip that needs it.
| Input | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|
name |
string | Folder under output/h3_sequences. |
width, height |
int | Output size. |
context_frames |
39, 90, 141 | Frames each clip carries from the clip before (1.6 s, 3.75 s, 5.9 s). |
carry_audio |
boolean | Also carry and freeze the matching audio. |
ref_image_size |
match or max |
Reference image sizing, as in MiniMax H3 Reference to Video. |
audio_context_frames |
int | Incoming audio context in 24 fps frames; 0 follows video. |
timeline |
string | The clips as JSON, written by the editor. |
clip, vae, audio_vae |
optional | H3 CLIP, video VAE and audio VAE. Without the audio VAE, @audio references only label the prompt. |
images.imageN, videos.videoN, video_audios.…, audios.audioN |
optional | Connected references. |
negative |
optional | Negative conditioning. |
still_recipe |
optional | A Still Recipe; video rendering never evaluates it. |
story |
optional | From H3 Story. Renders never wait for it. |
| Output | Type |
|---|---|
positive, negative |
CONDITIONING |
latent |
LATENT (empty audio+video latent to sample) |
segment |
H3C_SEGMENT (to H3 Save Segment) |
seed |
INT |
prompt |
STRING |
info |
STRING |
image_1, image_2… |
IMAGE, the clip's final <Picture N> pixels |
H3 Story¶
Plans and writes the Timeline's prompts through an OpenAI-compatible API. Output: story. Settings are on the writer page. The writing_mode widget is retired (every Write uses Fast) and kept only so saved workflows load.
H3 Save Segment¶
Saves the run as the next segment (the finished video without repeated frames, plus latents for the next run) and then rebuilds the full video.
| Input | Notes |
|---|---|
segment, latent |
From the Timeline and the sampler. |
images, audio |
Decoded frames and audio. Needed for the segment and full videos. |
fps |
24 unless you interpolate. |
crf |
H.264 quality; lower is better and larger. |
color_space |
HDR videos use 10-bit BT.2020. |
description |
Text stored with the segment, such as the prompt. |
write_full_video |
Only affects the deprecated H3 Sequence chain; the Timeline always exports when every clip is done. |
H3 Context Windows, H3 Join Chain¶
For long clips. Context Windows wraps ComfyUI's MiniMax H3 Context Windows (model → model); Join Chain joins saved continuing segments into one latent for refinement.
Still nodes¶
| Node | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Still Recipe | Wraps a native image generator's IMAGE output with bindings that say where its prompt, seed, size and references are. Connect it to the Timeline's still_recipe. |
| H3 Still Conditioning | Adapts a still generator invocation for pinned-source and reference presentation. Used inside the supplied H3 still examples. |
| Still Image Source | Supplies source pixels to a still request. |
| H3 Timeline Image | Resolved pixels for <Picture N> in the selected clip. |
Deprecated¶
H3 Sequence and H3 Continue are the earlier chain-based way of continuing a sequence. Use H3 Timeline instead. They remain so old workflows load.
