FastVideo

FastVideo is a unified post-training and real-time inference framework for accelerated video generation.

FastVideo is a unified post-training and real-time inference framework designed for accelerated video generation and editing. It supports bidirectional and autoregressive models, full finetuning, LoRA finetuning, and multiple hardware platforms including Linux, Windows, and MacOS. The platform incorporates advanced optimizations like Video Sparse Attention, Distribution Matching Distillation, and sequence parallelism for distributed inference. It features Dreamverse for realtime video generation and streaming, deployable on local GPUs, self-hosted servers, Docker, or Modal. The framework is built for developers and researchers working on state-of-the-art open video DiTs and vision models.
