Hi guys,

I´m getting some errors while trying to create a “Version” entity on Shotgun with TOPs.

I´m using the same setup as the help files: I find the current project using the shotgun find (one) and It returns the current and correct project. I´m de admin, so I have all permissions and I can create a version using the same “method” by using the python shell. Only on TOPs I get following error:

Found some info online about problems with firewall that could trigger this error. But I´ve got the same error with the firewall turned off (I´m on Windows 10 here).

It looks like a but. I can make It to work in some situation. I´ve sent a RFE.

The problem was due to ffmpeg turning the pdg graph to dynamic. Turning the PDG server end “dynamic partition” option solved the problem.

Hi Guilherme,

Yes - that is the correct solution for this problem. Since the work items are dynamic, you must use dynamic partitioning.

Ok John, thanks for the info!
