That “unreadable” message means that is_valid is set to ‘false’ 
somewhere, which could be caused by numerous of things. I guess the 
error could be more clear/specific, but that’s another story.

As far as I can see, is_valid is set to false if any of the following 
occurs;

  * can’t do file_mtime() on the file
  * if file is not classified as image or video (it should be classified 
as video as long as ‘codec_type: video’)
  * if VideoProbeWrapper() fails
  * if Image.open() fails in _photo_thumbnail()

There are some other cases where is_valid is set to false, but they have 
explicit error messages printed, which doesn’t seem to be the case for 
you.


  1) Could you add some debug to the TreeWalker.py file, run it again, 
and post the output for one of the errors? See patch below.
  2) Can you maybe try to call the same avprobe/ffprobe command via 
Python?
