Important: Unless you have a high-tier MiniMaxi enterprise account, you'll likely encounter frequent rate limit errors.

You must configure the following:

  1. Go to Menu → Tools/Options → Advanced Options → Dubbing Adjustments
  2. Set Concurrent Dubbing Count to 1
  3. Set Pause After Dubbing to 25 seconds or more

Regular accounts are limited to 3 requests per minute — roughly one every 20 seconds.

Notes for Users in China

⚠️ After logging in, you'll need to complete identity verification using a bank card and the phone number registered with your bank. If you haven't completed this step, tests may fail.

Additionally, when using this service, go to Menu → Tools/Options → Advanced Options → Dubbing Adjustments:

  • Set concurrent dubbing count to 1
  • Set the pause after dubbing to a value greater than 25 seconds

Otherwise, you'll likely exceed the rate limit.
