-class VideoDataLoader(object):
-    """
-    This class is designed to load video data given name of the file.
-    The class is called by corresponding extractors in the experiments using
-    emty(!) preprocessor. In this scenario the video data is loaded directly
-    from the database, avoiding duplicate storage of non-processed data in the
-    experimental directory.
-
-    NOTE:
-    To use this class in PAD experiments the command line argument
-    ``--preprocessed-directory`` must point to the original database directory.
-    For example:
-    --preprocessed-directory <DIRECTORY_CONTAINING_REPLAY_ATTACK_DATABASE>
-
-    At this point the class is just a collection of methods.
