User Compares MiniMax and Jimeng for Image-to-Video Generation
Forum user MangoDIO described trying the official MiniMax and Jimeng services in a thread asking about 1080p image-to-video tools. According to the poster, MiniMax's agent clarified project direction through repeated discussion prior to generation, producing outputs that met expectations but depleted platform credits rapidly. In contrast, MangoDIO reported that Jimeng consumed available credits without yielding a satisfactory result, describing the generation attempts as hit-or-miss.

The commenter advised preparing character assets and a script beforehand, followed by assembling storyboard images alongside written descriptions before initiating video generation runs.
