mediapipe: ValidatedGraphConfig Initialization Failed

I was able to replicate this error on an M1 mac with 3.11.7, running mediapipe 0.10.10, trying to run mediapipe holistic pose estimation. Downgrading to 0.10.9 fixed this issue.

It appears to happen on intel macs too, as I only tested the upgrade while trying to fix an issue from someone running 0.10.10 on an intel mac

If the issue stems from legacy solutions, we believe it will not be addressed, as we have already deprecated and ceased maintenance on them.

@kuaashish thanks for the response. Maybe it’s best if mediapipe adds a deprecation warning when trying to run code like this? It seems even for solutions that are still maintained (hands, pose), they fail with a calculator graph error. Checking the documentation, it seems there’s new code recommended on for the maintained solutions:

import mediapipe as mp

BaseOptions = mp.tasks.BaseOptions
PoseLandmarker = mp.tasks.vision.PoseLandmarker
PoseLandmarkerOptions = mp.tasks.vision.PoseLandmarkerOptions
VisionRunningMode = mp.tasks.vision.RunningMode

options = PoseLandmarkerOptions(
    base_options=BaseOptions(model_asset_path=model_path),
    running_mode=VisionRunningMode.IMAGE)

with PoseLandmarker.create_from_options(options) as landmarker:
  # The landmarker is initialized. Use it here.

But accessing the old method like from mediapipe.python.solutions.pose import Pose; Pose() is still possible, it just gives you a calculator graph error.

I think the expected behavior would be either an import error when trying to import the solutions this way, or a logged warning that this is no longer the proper way of calling this solution.

Thanks for the tip. I was facing the same issue on my M3 Mac and downgrading mediapipe to 0.10.9 did resolve it.

The legacy solutions seem to work with 0.10.13 on Mac again 😃

Thanks a lot, downgrading mediapipe to 0.10.9 worked for me as well. I’ve Macbook Air M1.

@kuaashish Is any work being done on this? The past two releases on mac error when trying to use any of the legacy solutions. Will this be fixed or are the legacy solutions deprecated?

Below is the full error message. The list of errors seems relatively straightforward, although I’m not familiar enough with the inner workings of mediapipe to tackle it myself.
