# NVIDIA GPU
Instructions to install FastVideo for NVIDIA CUDA GPUs.
## Requirements
- **OS: Linux or Windows WSL**
- **Python: 3.10-3.12**
- **CUDA: 12.6 or 13.0**
- **At least 1 NVIDIA GPU**
## Set up using Python
### Create a new Python environment
#### uv
Recommended default: use [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) for faster and more stable environment setup.
Please follow the [documentation](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/#getting-started) to install `uv`. After installing `uv`, create a new environment using:
```console
# (Recommended) Create a new uv environment. Use `--seed` to install `pip` and `setuptools`.
uv venv --python 3.12 --seed
source .venv/bin/activate
```
#### Conda (alternative)
You can also create a Python environment using [Conda](https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda/en/stable/user-guide/getting-started.html).
##### 1. Install Miniconda (if not already installed)
```bash
wget https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh
bash Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh
source ~/.bashrc
```
##### 2. Create and activate a Conda environment for FastVideo
```bash
# Create and activate a Conda environment
conda create -n fastvideo python=3.12 -y
conda activate fastvideo
```
### Installation
#### With uv (recommended)
```bash
UV_TORCH_BACKEND=cu126 uv pip install fastvideo
```
Also optionally install FlashAttention:
```bash
uv pip install flash-attn --no-build-isolation -v
```
#### With Conda environment (alternative)
`uv` works inside an active conda env too, so prefer `uv pip` for the actual install:
```bash
UV_TORCH_BACKEND=cu126 uv pip install fastvideo
```
Also optionally install FlashAttention:
```bash
uv pip install flash-attn --no-build-isolation -v
```
### Installation from Source
#### 1. Clone the FastVideo repository
```bash
git clone https://github.com/hao-ai-lab/FastVideo.git && cd FastVideo
```
#### 2. Install FastVideo
FastVideo requires PyTorch 2.12.0. Use `UV_TORCH_BACKEND=cu126` for CUDA 12 or
`UV_TORCH_BACKEND=cu130` for CUDA 13.
Basic installation:
```bash
UV_TORCH_BACKEND=cu126 uv pip install -e .
```
Alternative with Conda environment:
```bash
UV_TORCH_BACKEND=cu126 uv pip install -e .
```
### Optional Dependencies
#### Flash Attention
```bash
uv pip install flash-attn --no-build-isolation -v
```
Alternative with Conda environment:
```bash
uv pip install flash-attn --no-build-isolation -v
```
## Set up using Docker
We also have prebuilt docker images with FastVideo dependencies pre-installed:
[Docker Images](../../contributing/developer_env/docker.md)
## Development Environment Setup
If you're planning to contribute to FastVideo please see the following page:
[Contributor Guide](../../contributing/overview.md)
## Hardware Requirements
### For Basic Inference
- NVIDIA GPU compatible with CUDA 12.6 or newer
### For Lora Finetuning
- 40GB GPU memory each for 2 GPUs with lora
- 30GB GPU memory each for 2 GPUs with CPU offload and lora
### For Full Finetuning/Distillation
- Multiple high-memory GPUs recommended (e.g., H100)
## Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues during installation, please open an issue on our [GitHub repository](https://github.com/hao-ai-lab/FastVideo).
