'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0x8c in position 1708: invalid start byte

Hi Karol,
I am trying to use this library.
When i call "videos_to_frames_pipe()" function i got this error : "'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0x8c in position 1708: invalid start byte" on my own dataset (which includes some videos of Ucf-101 datasets).

I suppose there is some error in some videos, but I can't figure out which one.
I thank you for your availability.

Hi @SamueledelVescovo
Yeah, I would guess there's something wrong with one of the files.
You can try modifying that videos_to_frames_pipe() function to add something like below to the begining of the pipe:

...
| mp.iter('filename', lambda fn: print('Processing: ', fn))
...

That way you would at least print the filename before it throws exception maybe.
