There is a bug in the youtube database interface. In particular, running this simple script:

import bob.db.youtube
from bob.bio.video.database.youtube import YoutubeBioFile

youtube_directory = '/idiap/resource/database/YouTubeFaces/aligned_images_DB/'
youtube_extension = ".jpg"

youtube = bob.db.youtube.Database()

files = youtube.objects()
file_num = 0
f = files[file_num]

youtube_bio_file = YoutubeBioFile(f)
frame_container = youtube_bio_file.load(directory=youtube_directory, extension=youtube_extension)
print ( len(frame_container) )

Gives the following error (for the master branch):

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/idiap/user/onikisins/Projects/ODIN/Python/scripts/youtube_db/youtube_db_test_script.py", line 40, in <module>

This merge request fixes it. The output of the above code is 20, as expected. Can someone, please, review and merge it if OK? Thanks!
