i'm getting an error while running the data collection feed

what should i do?? Even my MP_Data folder is created

I'm getting the same error, how did you fix it?

Notice "/31/" in the file path. This looks like something others ran into as well. e.g. https://github.com/nicknochnack/ActionDetectionforSignLanguage/issues/14

Cause is start_folder didn't exist in the original video. Guessing Nicholas added later on during additional capture/training session.

Fix is to add start_folder = 0 to the "Setup Folders for Collection" cell. e.g.

# Path for exported data, numpy arrays
DATA_PATH = os.path.join('.', 'MP_Data') 

# Actions that we try to detect
actions = np.array(['l', 'r', 'rotate'])

# Thirty videos worth of data
no_sequences = 30

# Videos are going to be 30 frames in length
sequence_length = 30

# Folder start
start_folder = 0
