+#### LTX-2 Pipeline Debugging (February 2026)
+
+Pipeline produced noise instead of video. Four bugs found by comparing against diffusers reference using `pyrotechnics::py2r_file()`:
+
+1. **Scheduler step treated velocity as x0** (CRITICAL): LTX-2 DiT predicts velocity directly. The step is `latents = latents + dt * model_output`, not the x0-to-velocity derivation.
+
+2. **Missing latent denormalization** (CRITICAL): Must denormalize latents (`latents * std / scaling_factor + mean`) before `vae$decode()`. The VAE's `latents_mean`/`latents_std` buffers are loaded from `per_channel_statistics` in safetensors weights.
+
+3. **VAE encoder negative indexing**: R's `[, -1,,,]` excludes the last channel; Python's `[:, -1:]` selects it. Fixed to `[, hidden_states$shape[2],,,, drop = FALSE]`.
+
+4. **Text encoder skipped embedding layer**: Gemma3 outputs 49 hidden states (1 embedding + 48 layers). Code was taking `[2:length]` (48 states) but `text_proj_in_factor=49` expects all 49.
+
+**Lesson**: Use `pyrotechnics::py2r_file()` to auto-convert reference Python to R for side-by-side comparison. The converted code isn't runnable but reveals algorithmic differences clearly.
+
+#### LTX-2 Two-Stage Distilled Pipeline (February 2026)
+
+Wan2GP's distilled pipeline uses two stages for higher quality output:
+
+**Architecture:**
+1. Stage 1: Denoise at half resolution (H/2, W/2) with 8 steps using `DISTILLED_SIGMA_VALUES`
+2. Upsampler: Un-normalize latents → Conv3d ResBlocks + SpatialRationalResampler (2x) → Re-normalize
+3. Stage 2: Add noise at `noise_scale=0.909375`, denoise at full resolution with 3 steps using `STAGE_2_DISTILLED_SIGMA_VALUES`
+
+**Sigma schedules (hardcoded):**
+- Stage 1: `[1.0, 0.99375, 0.9875, 0.98125, 0.975, 0.909375, 0.725, 0.421875, 0.0]`
+- Stage 2: `[0.909375, 0.725, 0.421875, 0.0]`
+
+**Upsampler model details:**
+- Weight file: `ltx-2-spatial-upscaler-x2-1.0.safetensors` (~950MB)
+- Architecture: `dims=3` (Conv3d), `mid_channels=1024`, `in_channels=128`
+- Uses `SpatialRationalResampler(scale=2.0)`: rearranges to per-frame 2D, applies Conv2d(1024→4096) + PixelShuffle(2), then back to 5D
+- For scale=2.0: `num=2, den=1`, so BlurDownsample is identity (stride=1)
+- Weight key `upsampler.blur_down.kernel` is a buffer, safely skipped during loading
+
+**Stage 2 noise injection:**
+```r
+noise <- torch_randn_like(latents)
+latents <- noise * noise_scale + latents * (1 - noise_scale)
+```
+Where `noise_scale = stage_2_sigmas[1] = 0.909375`.
+
+**Resolution constraint:** For two-stage, resolution must be divisible by 64 (not 32).

+    advance the noisy latents one step along the diffusion schedule.
+    ### Parameters
+    sigmas:
+        A 1D tensor of noise levels (diffusion sigmas) defining the sampling
+        schedule. All steps except the last element are iterated over.

+    audio_state:
+        The current audio :class:`LatentState`, analogous to ``video_state``
+        but for the audio modality.
+    stepper:
+        An implementation of :class:`DiffusionStepProtocol` that updates a
+        latent given the current latent, its denoised estimate, the full
+        ``sigmas`` schedule, && the current step index.
+    denoise_fn:
+        A callable implementing :class:`DenoisingFunc`. It is invoked as
+        ``denoise_fn(video_state, audio_state, sigmas, step_index)`` && must
+        return(a tuple ``(denoised_video, denoised_audio)``, where each element)
+        is a tensor with the same shape as the corresponding latent.
+    ### Returns
+    tuple[LatentState, LatentState]
+        A pair ``(video_state, audio_state)`` containing the final video &&
+        audio latent states after completing the denoising loop.
