LTX-2.3 Distilled (Diffusers)

Diffusers-format weights for the distilled LTX-2.3 model from Lightricks/LTX-2.3 . Runs in 8 steps with CFG = 1 , trading some flexibility for substantially faster inference.

The non-distilled base model is at diffusers/LTX-2.3-Diffusers .

Usage

Requires a recent build of diffusers with LTX-2 support:

pip install -U git+https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers

The distilled checkpoint uses a fixed sigma schedule. Always pass sigmas=DISTILLED_SIGMA_VALUES , num_inference_steps=8 , and guidance_scale=1.0 .

Notes

• width and height must be divisible by 32; num_frames must equal 8k + 1 .
• See the Diffusers LTX-2 docs for multimodal guidance, prompt enhancement, and the upscaling/refinement pipeline.
