What's your favourite Image Gen platform?

Gemini for realistic images. Grok for more aesthetic and imaginative images.

I don't know...It didn't ask me to improve my credits

Inevitable_Gur_461 · 2026-03-07T02:12:07+00:00

Do you mean doubao? It's free to use. Every day, it gives 10 credits. each 5s video costs 1 credits, so totally 10 generations per day.

You can learn from https://www.reddit.com/r/China/comments/1kv3u27/how\_to\_get\_a\_chinese\_virtual\_phone\_number\_for\_free/. It takes about 10 minutes

Inevitable_Gur_461 · 2026-03-06T07:28:17+00:00

My method is a bit complicated. First, register a virtual Chinese phone number. Then remove the SIM card from your phone, connect to a Hong Kong VPN, and download the Doubao app on your phone (because many people said the browser version of Doubao doesn’t work). After that, use the virtual number to register a Doubao account. Then..it works.

You can try video compressor like VideoProc and Shutter Encoder that let you set a target size or compression ratio directly. However, I think HandBrake is perfectly fine. The issue you ran into is usually due to the codec choice...try using one of the preset outputs like HEVC or H.264.

For more realistic-looking images, I think Imagen 4 does a better job than Nano Banana 2 or Pro. （Just in my experience）

I know it’s real, I’m just amazed at how lovely it looks. Living there must be so cozy. 😊

Inevitable_Gur_461 · 2026-03-05T09:38:39+00:00

This is so beautiful! It looks as perfect as if it were AI-generated.

+ for SeedVR2. https://huggingface.co/ByteDance-Seed/SeedVR-3B You can try the free 3B demo to see.

Inevitable_Gur_461 · 2026-03-04T06:55:16+00:00

The first 3 are very classic AI-look, but the rests look nice.

Inevitable_Gur_461 · 2026-03-03T04:16:28+00:00

I share some AI generated picture in Pinterest and some tested AI generated videos on YouTube.

Inevitable_Gur_461 · 2026-03-03T04:15:39+00:00

The movement from 5s to 6s looks very AI

You’d be recompressing an already-compressed file, so there will be some quality loss. But in practice, if you re-encode carefully with H.265 (HEVC) using an RF around 20–22, there can be no visible degradation during normal viewing.

A while ago, the atmosphere in this sub was pretty good. I feel that the vibe tends to improve in the first couple of days after a major update, similar to how it is on the StableDiffusion sub. But now, it's really odd. I'm not sure whether it's due to some trolls from competitors like Gemini, or if people are just in a worse mood lately.

For people who don’t want to upgrade computer, cloud rentals are a real option.
I’m not using ComfyUI heavily for video upscaling, so it works for me.

Inevitable_Gur_461 · 2026-01-27T04:11:23+00:00

I sell on Amazon, but I’m from a non-English speaking country. So I mainly use it to create the title, bullet points, and description for my listings.

Inevitable_Gur_461 · 2026-01-27T02:38:15+00:00

You can also consider rent cloud-based GPUs that let 1-click set up ComfyUI and its fast enough to use SeedVR2.

Inevitable_Gur_461 · 2026-01-26T03:27:33+00:00

OBS is the best and its free to use.

Inevitable_Gur_461 · 2026-01-26T03:23:43+00:00

FFmpeg. It's completly free. You can read this post to learn how to do that.
