Hands-on review · 2026-10-21
TestedC6/10- CPU-only box: 8 cores, 15 GB RAM, no GPU.
- Free shared Space; 2 clips; 1 seed
LTX-Video's free Space produced smooth, coherent 2-second clips in seconds, the only free video generator we got working headlessly. It handles scenes and camera motion well but ignored specific details: the car was a dot, and the mug never steamed. Good for quick motion tests, not yet for prompt-exact shots.
Both clips coherent and fast, both missed prompt details.
- Coverage
- One text-to-video shot and one image-to-video shot on the free Space
- What we tested
- The site's video task: one shot from text and one from a still (the FLUX mug image).
Method
gradio_client against Lightricks/ltx-video-distilled, no account. 704x512, duration 2 s, seed 42, guidance 1, improve_texture on.
Measured
- t2v-car8.8 s wall, 1.9 s clip at 30 fps. Coherent sunset coastal road with waves, but the 'red vintage car' is a tiny speck and there is no tracking shot. PARTIAL
- i2v-mug4.8 s wall, 1.9 s clip. Smooth slow orbit with the mug consistent; no steam; slight handle shape drift. PARTIAL

Cons
- Only about 2 s clips on the free Space
- Missed key prompt elements (car prominence, steam)
- Shares the anonymous ZeroGPU quota, which ran out later in our session
