AnimateDiff v3 (SD 1.5) on Raspberry Pi 4 (2 GB)

Can the Raspberry Pi 4 (2 GB) run AnimateDiff v3 (SD 1.5)?

No, it doesn’t fit

No. AnimateDiff v3 (SD 1.5) needs about 2.6 GB even at FP16; the Raspberry Pi 4 (2 GB) has 1.2 GB usable.

How it’s rated

Quality 35Basic quality (D) · 35 of 100: how capable the model is at FP16, whatever it runs on. Match score 4/100 (quality, fit, speed and memory use) sets the ranking.: How capable the model itself is at FP16, from its editorial quality tier scaled by the quantization or precision. It’s the same on any hardware that runs this variant. Scale: A+ 85+ · A 70+ · B 55+ · C 40+ · D under 40.
Runs Won't run: How well it runs on the Raspberry Pi 4 (2 GB): speed, capped by how well it fits in memory. Runs great: 30+ tokens/s (or near the image, video or decision speed target) · Runs well: 10+ tokens/s · Slow: 3+ tokens/s · Very slow: under 3 · Won’t run: doesn’t fit even with offload. A tight fit or RAM offload caps it at Runs well; heavy offload caps it at Slow.

Match score

To order lists, each result also gets a match score out of 100 from four parts. It favors the most capable model that still runs well.

Model qualityEditorial quality tier of the model, scaled by the quantization or precision used.	4.7 / 45
Memory fitFull marks when the model fits in the share of unified memory the GPU can use; fewer when it goes past that limit.	0.0 / 25
SpeedGeneration speed against a 40 tokens/s target for LLMs, or render time against a target for image and video.	0.0 / 15
Memory useRewards using the memory you have, so a bigger, better variant beats a tiny one that leaves most memory idle.	0.0 / 15
Match score	4.7 / 100

The match score orders results; it is not shown as a grade. Quality and Runs are the two ratings in the tables.

It doesn’t fit, so only a reduced share of the quality points counts and fit, speed and memory use score zero.

Models that do run on the Raspberry Pi 4 (2 GB)

Estimates come from published hardware specs and our open formulas, not from running the model on your machine. Real speed varies with runtime, drivers and settings. Numbers marked “Measured” come from a linked benchmark.
