# LTX Video Generator (Personal Use)

A free text-to-video generator built on [LTX-Video](https://huggingface.co/Lightricks/LTX-Video),
running as a Hugging Face Space with a Gradio UI.

## Deploy steps

1. Go to https://huggingface.co/new-space
2. Fill in:
   - **Space name**: e.g. `my-ltx-video-generator`
   - **SDK**: Gradio
   - **Hardware**:
     - Free CPU works but will be very slow (many minutes per clip).
     - **ZeroGPU** is free if your account is eligible — best option for personal use.
     - Or pick a paid GPU tier (e.g. T4/A10G) billed by the minute if you want faster, always-on generation.
   - **Visibility**: Private (recommended, since this is personal use) or Public.
3. Once the Space is created, upload these three files (or push via git — see below):
   - `app.py`
   - `requirements.txt`
   - `README.md`
4. The Space will build automatically. First build takes a while — it has to
   download the LTX-Video model weights (several GB).
5. Once it says "Running", open the app and generate your first clip.

## Uploading via git (alternative to the web UI)

```bash
git clone https://huggingface.co/spaces/YOUR_USERNAME/my-ltx-video-generator
cd my-ltx-video-generator
# copy in app.py, requirements.txt, README.md
git add .
git commit -m "Initial LTX video generator"
git push
```

You'll need a Hugging Face **access token** (with "write" scope) to push:
Settings → Access Tokens → New token, then use it as your password when git
prompts for credentials (username = your HF username).

## Notes

- LTX-Video is gated/openly licensed under its own model license — the first
  time the Space downloads it, you may need to have accepted the license on
  the [model page](https://huggingface.co/Lightricks/LTX-Video) with the same
  account that owns the Space.
- Generation settings (resolution, frame count, steps) are exposed in the UI
  so you can trade off speed vs. quality.
- This is set up for personal/private use — keep the Space private if you
  don't want to share generations publicly.
