Musubi Tuner
Kohya's memory-efficient LoRA trainer for open video and image diffusion models.
About
Musubi Tuner is kohya-ss's answer to training LoRAs for the current generation of video and image diffusion transformers on consumer hardware. From the author of the sd-scripts trainer that dominated the Stable Diffusion era, it supports HunyuanVideo, Wan 2.1 and 2.2, FramePack, FLUX.1 Kontext, FLUX.2 dev and klein, Qwen-Image, Z-Image, Kandinsky 5, and other recent architectures, with memory-saving techniques such as latent and text-encoder output precaching and block swapping between GPU and system RAM. The documented baseline is 12 GB of VRAM or more for image training and 24 GB or more for video work, with 64 GB of main memory recommended. Install is pip based on Python 3.10 through 3.12 with PyTorch 2.5.1 or later, plus an experimental uv path, and training runs from command line scripts driven by TOML dataset configs. Repository docs cover each architecture and advanced settings. Most of the code carries the Apache-2.0 license, with the HunyuanVideo derived directories following Tencent's licenses instead, and the repository was updated continuously through mid 2026 as a standard trainer for open video model LoRAs.
Should you use Musubi Tuner?
Pick it when
Pick Musubi Tuner when you train Wan, HunyuanVideo, FramePack, or Qwen-Image LoRAs on a single consumer card, 24 GB or more for video, and have around 64 GB of system RAM so block swapping can stretch it.
Look elsewhere when
Skip it if you want a GUI, since training runs from command line scripts and TOML configs, where AI Toolkit's web UI is easier. Check Tencent's license terms on the HunyuanVideo derived code before commercial use.
Alternatives to Musubi Tuner
- AI Toolkit
Web UI with dataset and job management under plain MIT, easier to operate, but its listed video models are Wan and LTX, not HunyuanVideo or FramePack.
- diffusion-pipe
Splits video models across several GPUs with DeepSpeed for larger runs, but it is Linux or WSL 2 only with a harder conda and CUDA toolkit setup.
- Kohya-ss
Same author's sd-scripts for SD 1.5, SDXL, and FLUX.1 image LoRAs with several third-party GUI wrappers, but no video model support.
