## Before you run

The generated commands expect a local clone:

    git clone https://github.com/hao-ai-lab/FastVideo.git
    cd FastVideo

Use [Configuration](../inference/configuration.md) for supported Python and
CLI settings, [Optimizations](../inference/optimizations.md) for attention and
memory tradeoffs, and the [support matrix](../inference/support_matrix.md) for
the supported model and optimization surface.

## Troubleshooting

- Out of memory on the A14B recipes: the checked-in sources already enable CPU offload; see [Configuration](../inference/configuration.md) for the offload surface before reducing resolution or frames.
- The FastWan2.1 recipe requires `VIDEO_SPARSE_ATTN`; confirm the environment variable in the command was set in the same shell.
- Gated or missing checkpoints: run `huggingface-cli login` and confirm you accepted the model's license on Hugging Face.

## Evidence status

Every recipe on this page maps to a checked-in FastVideo source. The FastMetal MLX releases include the recorded M4 Max system memory, documented unified-memory floor, and measured peak MLX memory. CUDA entries remain **Source-backed** where the examples record a GPU count but no exact GPU model or VRAM. Unlisted hardware is unknown, not unsupported.
