Edit‑VAR is a training‑free, inversion‑free framework that uses a pretrained visual autoregressive video model for text‑guided video editing. It encodes the source video into multi‑scale discrete tokens and applies probability‑guided conditional token replacement, attention‑guided token‑wise and scale‑aware modulation, and scale‑decoupled generation to preserve source appearance while enabling precise edits. The method also includes residual‑guided token pruning to reduce inference cost, and experimental results show it outperforms existing training‑free video editing methods in fidelity, source preservation, temporal coherence, and efficiency.

EditaLive! is a new real‑time framework for character video editing in live streaming, built on a pretrained image animation model (Wan‑Animate) that separates appearance from motion. It uses the CharEdit‑50K dataset for reference‑frame editing and video reconstruction, and adapts the model from offline bidirectional to causal streaming generation. A self‑rollout distillation strategy compresses the model into a two‑step sampler, employing fixed RoPE, alignment forcing, and first‑frame preserved sparse attention to reduce appearance drift and achieve low‑latency inference while preserving facial expressions.
