TypeError: default_name type (<type 'list'>) is not a string type. You likely meant to pass this into the values kwarg.

Hello I am stuck at step "Processing video", actually every command in this step has it's error but I fixed it thanks to the Issues. But I can't do anything with this following error:

When I run
`#3d pose estimation
os.chdir('..')
!bash hmr/3dpose_estimate.sh

#convert estimated .csv files to bvh
!blender --background hmr/csv_to_bvh.blend -noaudio -P hmr/csv_to_bvh.py`

This error occurred.

How to fix it?
Thank you.

So, I have fixed it by downgrade tensorflow to 1.11

@xamxixixo How did you downgrade tensorflow on google colab? Did you run pip install --upgrade tensorflow==1.11.0 on colab and everything worked fine?

[xamxixixo]

I did this:

pip uninstall tensorflow
pip install tensorflow==1.11

Colab will tell you (in the pip install process) there will be packages that won't go well with that old tensorflow, you should downgrade them too

[kazux2]

@xamxixixo I see. Thanks! (I didn't downgrade other depended packages and couldn't run the process without error) Apparently, in the newer tensorflow, the function tf.name_scope has different arguments and absl-py started comming with it and has colliding flag name 'log_dir' and these were making errors.

See this solution in the original hmr code, it solves the problem without having to change tensorflow:
akanazawa/hmr#69 (comment).

Using the TensorFlow documentation for tf.name_scope, I resolved the issue by prepending [x] with values=. That is change with tf.name_scope("Encoder_resnet", [x]): to with tf.name_scope("Encoder_resnet", values=[x]):. This error also occurs in a few places over in batch_lbs.py which I fixed in the same way.

I got this bug, and tensorflow 1.11 doesn't work for me.
@Duthopi could you tell me where is the batch_lbs.py so that I can try it out ?

[Duthopi]

It's under the /content/hmr/src/tf_smpl/ folder
