# FastVideo-FastH3-4-step-Preview-v1-VSA-DataFree

The recommended FastH3 Preview v1 checkpoint from
[FastVideo](https://github.com/hao-ai-lab/FastVideo). It generates synchronized
video and audio from text with four transformer forwards. This step-1300 model
was trained with data-free DMD2 and VSA-H3 at 90% sparsity.

> This checkpoint requires FastVideo's VSA-H3 attention backend. Use the
> matching LoRA above if you prefer to download only the distilled adapter.

## Run with FastVideo

Install [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/), then use
the CUDA 13 / Blackwell path below. It selects FastVideo's published CUDA
kernel wheel instead of compiling the kernel locally. See the
[installation guide](https://hao-ai-lab.github.io/FastVideo/getting_started/installation/)
for other platforms.

```bash
git clone https://github.com/hao-ai-lab/FastVideo.git
cd FastVideo
uv venv --python 3.12 --seed
source .venv/bin/activate
UV_TORCH_BACKEND=cu130 uv pip install \
  --no-sources-package fastvideo-kernel \
  -e ".[fasth3]"
```

```bash
python examples/inference/basic/basic_fasth3.py \
  --model-path FastVideo/FastVideo-FastH3-4-step-Preview-v1-VSA-DataFree \
  --prompt "your prompt" \
  --no-warmup \
  --repeats 1
```

The tested defaults use four B200 GPUs and the trained four-forward schedule.
On other multi-GPU CUDA systems, follow the installation guide and add
`--no-replicated-dit --vsa-kernel triton --no-fa4`. The GPU count must divide
H3's 56 attention heads.

## Scope

This preview supports text-to-audio-video generation. FL2VA and Ref2VA were
not distilled. Difficult motion, fine detail, and some audio may remain below
the base MiniMax H3 model. This checkpoint inherits the
