  1. poor error message from ffmpeg_reader.py 

    Per [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11497234/typeerrorexceptions-must-be-old-style-classes-or-derived-from-baseexception-no](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11497234/typeerrorexceptions-must-be-old-style-classes-or-derived-from-baseexception-no), as of python 2.6, you can't raise just a string.  If this particular error is triggered, you just get a message

    {TypeError} exceptions must be old-style classes or derived from BaseException, not unicode

The nearby exceptions are IOErrors, so I made this one an IOError as well.  Now it shows the real exception, instead of the cryptic message above.
