strange message on thumbnail creation

split.py - weird message on thumbnail creation

[swscaler @ 0xef5809c0] deprecated pixel format used, make sure you did set range correctly

[image2 @ 0xe18d480] The specified filename 'workdir/Ballroom-C-Sunday/10-Years-Of-Open-Source-Funding-Trends-A-Deep-Dive.jpg' does not contain an image sequence pattern or a pattern is invalid.                                            
[image2 @ 0xe18d480] Use a pattern such as %03d for an image sequence or use the -update option (with -frames:v 1 if needed) to write a single image.                           

This would imply that we're not quite using the right command to generate a single image, even though it's doing it for us.

NOTE: I had to hack split.py to generate jpeg instead of png because of #58

Found the Stack Overflow for it
https://superuser.com/questions/1792249/ffmpeg-suppress-warning-when-writing-to-a-single-image

And here is an example:
ffmpeg -y -ss 44 -i Enterprise-Automation-with-AWX-upstream-for-Ansible-Automation-Platform-.mp4 -update true -frames:v 1 blah.jpg

Did some research on this message and people are saying that it's just a warning message instead of an error that we don't need to worry about. It happens when ffmpeg creates JPEG images, it chooses a different pixel format with a different pixel range which creates this message.

@ldang I can add a parameter to the ffmpeg create thumbnail function that suppresses warnings like these so we don't see it anymore. If not, we can also just leave it be. Let me know what you think.
