H3 long-video degradation workaround: a second noise-injection refine stage in latent space

xyzdist · reddit · 2026-09-23

Reddit user xyzdist shares a new test tackling HunyuanVideo (H3)'s long-video quality degradation. The approach: a minimal workflow with native motion-context plus a second refinement stage that injects noise and clean conditioning into latent space to stop degradation, then blends the latent back.

The test video combines 10×8s segments using a cheap 10-step base + 4-step refine setup. The refine side degrades notably less, but contrast still worsens over time and background elements occasionally vanish. The author mentions tapered noise and selfLift as possible next steps and links earlier posts with workflow details.
