-## July, 8th, 2025: New Control Models Released!
-- Released three new control models for LTX-Video on HuggingFace:
-    * **Depth Control**: [LTX-Video-ICLoRA-depth-13b-0.9.7](https://huggingface.co/Lightricks/LTX-Video-ICLoRA-depth-13b-0.9.7)
-    * **Pose Control**: [LTX-Video-ICLoRA-pose-13b-0.9.7](https://huggingface.co/Lightricks/LTX-Video-ICLoRA-pose-13b-0.9.7)
-    * **Canny Control**: [LTX-Video-ICLoRA-canny-13b-0.9.7](https://huggingface.co/Lightricks/LTX-Video-ICLoRA-canny-13b-0.9.7)

-## May, 14th, 2025: New distilled model 13B v0.9.7:
-- Release a new 13B distilled model [ltxv-13b-0.9.7-distilled](https://huggingface.co/Lightricks/LTX-Video/blob/main/ltxv-13b-0.9.7-distilled.safetensors)
-    * Amazing for iterative work - generates HD videos in 10 seconds, with low-res preview after just 3 seconds (on H100)!
-    * Does not require classifier-free guidance and spatio-temporal guidance.
-    * Supports sampling with 8 (recommended), or less diffusion steps.
-    * Also released a LoRA version of the distilled model, [ltxv-13b-0.9.7-distilled-lora128](https://huggingface.co/Lightricks/LTX-Video/blob/main/ltxv-13b-0.9.7-distilled-lora128.safetensors)
-        * Requires only 1GB of VRAM
-        * Can be used with the full 13B model for fast inference
-- Release a new quantized distilled model [ltxv-13b-0.9.7-distilled-fp8](https://huggingface.co/Lightricks/LTX-Video/blob/main/ltxv-13b-0.9.7-distilled-fp8.safetensors) for *real-time* generation (on H100) with even less VRAM

-    * 15x faster inference than non-distilled model.
-    * Does not require classifier-free guidance and spatio-temporal guidance.
-    * Supports sampling with 8 (recommended), or less diffusion steps.
-- Improved prompt adherence, motion quality and fine details.
-- New default resolution and FPS: 1216 × 704 pixels at 30 FPS
-    * Still real time on H100 with the distilled model.
-    * Other resolutions and FPS are still supported.
-- Support stochastic inference (can improve visual quality when using the distilled model)
