Real-time video editing requires low-latency causal generation with bounded computational resources while preserving source fidelity and long-term temporal consistency. We present JoyAI-Video-Edit, a 16B-parameter autoregressive diffusion framework for real-time, open-ended video editing without access to future frames or a predefined video duration. Our method combines chunk-wise autoregressive adaptation, Source-Anchored Distribution Matching Distillation (SA-DMD), and Long-Horizon Autoregressive Distillation to reduce train--inference mismatch, preserve source fidelity during two-step generation, and mitigate accumulated temporal drift. Extensive automatic and human evaluations show that JoyAI-Video-Edit substantially outperforms existing streaming editors and remains competitive with strong offline systems on both short and long videos. The complete system achieves end-to-end 720p video editing at approximately 30 FPS on a single Nvidia B200 GPU. Code is available at https://github.com/jd-opensource/JoyAI-Video-Edit.

On-policy distillation, in which a teacher corrects samples that the student itself generates, presupposes that the two models speak the same language: identical VAE latents, matching architectures, and a common timestep grid. We ask what happens when none of this holds, as when the strongest teacher available and the student one wishes to deploy come from different model families, and find that the standard recipes have no answer: teacher latents cannot serve as targets in a foreign coordinate system, per-pixel losses against a teacher that stochastically re-draws local detail degenerate into blur or divergence, and timestep indices lose their meaning across mismatched schedules. We present Any-OPD, to our knowledge the first framework for on-policy distillation between arbitrary pairs of latent flow-matching generators. Any-OPD treats the teacher purely as a black-box sampler and connects the two models at exactly one point: a frozen, model-agnostic vision representation in which their independently decoded outputs are compared, sidestepping every assumption about latents, features, or architecture. Trajectory correspondence is recovered by matching continuous noise levels instead of step indices, and a brief anchoring phase, in which teacher samples are re-encoded through the student's own VAE, ensures the on-policy gradient measures sample quality rather than domain mismatch. Distilling the 12B FLUX.1-dev into the 2.5B SD3.5-Medium, Any-OPD lifts the student's PickScore from 0.846 to 0.884 and HPSv3 from 9.12 to 10.97, rivaling the teacher at a fifth of its size, where direct latent regression fails to train at all.
