# Key Feature 

- **Open Source**: Full [model weights](https://huggingface.co/rhymes-ai/Allegro) and [code](https://github.com/rhymes-ai/Allegro) available to the community, Apache 2.0!
- **Versatile Content Creation**: Capable of generating a wide range of content, from close-ups of humans and animals to diverse dynamic scenes.
- **High-Quality Output**: Generate detailed 6-second videos at 15 FPS with 720x1280 resolution, which can be interpolated to 30 FPS with [EMA-VFI](https://github.com/MCG-NJU/EMA-VFI).
- **Small and Efficient**: Features a 175M parameter VideoVAE and a 2.8B parameter VideoDiT model. Supports multiple precisions (FP32, BF16, FP16) and uses 9.3 GB of GPU memory in BF16 mode with CPU offloading. Context length is 79.2K, equivalent to 88 frames.

# Quick start

1. Download the [Allegro GitHub code](https://github.com/rhymes-ai/Allegro).
   
2. Install the necessary requirements.
     
   - Ensure Python >= 3.10, PyTorch >= 2.4, CUDA >= 12.4. For details, see [requirements.txt](https://github.com/rhymes-ai/Allegro/blob/main/requirements.txt).  
       
   - It is recommended to use Anaconda to create a new environment (Python >= 3.10) to run the following example.  

3. Download the [Allegro model weights](https://huggingface.co/rhymes-ai/Allegro). Before diffuser integration, use git lfs or snapshot_download.
 
4. Run inference.
   
    ```python
    python single_inference.py \
    --user_prompt 'A seaside harbor with bright sunlight and sparkling seawater, with many boats in the water. From an aerial view, the boats vary in size and color, some moving and some stationary. Fishing boats in the water suggest that this location might be a popular spot for docking fishing boats.' \
    --save_path ./output_videos/test_video.mp4
    --vae your/path/to/vae \
    --dit your/path/to/transformer \
    --text_encoder your/path/to/text_encoder \
    --tokenizer your/path/to/tokenizer \
    --guidance_scale 7.5 \
    --num_sampling_steps 100 \
    --seed 42
    ```
  
    Use '--enable_cpu_offload' to offload the model into CPU for less GPU memory cost (about 9.3G, compared to 27.5G if CPU offload is not enabled), but the inference time will increase significantly.

5. (Optional) Interpolate the video to 30 FPS.

    It is recommended to use [EMA-VFI](https://github.com/MCG-NJU/EMA-VFI) to interpolate the video from 15 FPS to 30 FPS.
  
    For better visual quality, please use imageio to save the video.
