"""MiniMax-H3 Turbo LoRA — 4-step text-to-audio-video generation. A lightweight LoRA that lets MiniMax-H3 render joint video + stereo audio in **4 sampling steps** instead of the usual ~20, at a fraction of the wall-clock cost. This single file is a self-contained generator: it loads the base H3 DiT plus this LoRA, encodes the prompt with the Qwen3-VL text encoder, runs the model's native dual-schedule sampler for 4 steps, decodes both streams and muxes a playable mp4. The audio stream runs on its own shifted flow schedule (video shift 12, audio shift 3); each stream is integrated on its own clock, which is the schedule semantics MiniMax-H3 was designed around. That is the only non-obvious part of sampling — everything else is a plain Euler flow sampler. Dependencies (see requirements.txt), plus a ComfyUI checkout for the H3 model / VAE / text-encoder module definitions: git clone https://github.com/comfyanonymous/ComfyUI cd ComfyUI && git checkout 14b05228cef127ce529bc0c08660770d4af3e9a8 Base weights come from the official MiniMax-H3 release (Comfy-Org/MiniMax-H3 on the Hugging Face Hub): the bf16 DiT, the int8 Qwen3-VL text encoder, and the video + audio VAEs.
