contents Recent text-to-video (T2V) diffusion models have made remarkable progress in generating high-quality videos. However, they often struggle to align with complex text prompts, particularly when multiple objects, attributes, or spatial relations are specified. We introduce VideoRepair, the first self-correcting, training-free, and model-agnostic video refinement framework that automatically detects fine-grained text-video misalignments and performs targeted, localized corrections. Our key insight is that even misaligned videos usually contain correctly generated regions that should be preserved rather than regenerated. Building on this observation, VideoRepair proposes a novel region-preserving refinement strategy with three stages: (i) misalignment detection, where MLLM-based evaluation with automatically generated evaluation questions identifies misaligned regions; (ii) refinement planning, which preserves correctly generated entities, segments their regions across frames, and constructs targeted prompts for misaligned areas; and (iii) localized refinement, which selectively regenerates problematic regions while preserving faithful content through joint optimization of preserved and newly generated areas. On two benchmarks, EvalCrafter and T2V-CompBench with four recent T2V backbones, VideoRepair achieves substantial improvements over recent baselines across diverse alignment metrics. Comprehensive ablations further demonstrate the efficiency, robustness, and interpretability of our framework.
