ValueError: Could not find a format to read the specified file in single-image mode

Hi,
I am trying to run python get_face_landmark.py with 2 test images n000024_0042_02 and n000056_0060_01
but it returned with:

(DFD) G:\DFDNet\DFDNet\FaceLandmarkDetection>python get_face_landmark.py
(0, 'Landmarks')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "get_face_landmark.py", line 28, in <module>
    imgs = io.imread(os.path.join(FilePath,name))
  File "E:\Anaconda3\envs\DFD\lib\site-packages\skimage\io\_io.py", line 48, in imread
    img = call_plugin('imread', fname, plugin=plugin, **plugin_args)
  File "E:\Anaconda3\envs\DFD\lib\site-packages\skimage\io\manage_plugins.py", line 209, in call_plugin
    return func(*args, **kwargs)
  File "E:\Anaconda3\envs\DFD\lib\site-packages\skimage\io\_plugins\imageio_plugin.py", line 10, in imread
    return np.asarray(imageio_imread(*args, **kwargs))
  File "E:\Anaconda3\envs\DFD\lib\site-packages\imageio\core\functions.py", line 265, in imread
    reader = read(uri, format, "i", **kwargs)
  File "E:\Anaconda3\envs\DFD\lib\site-packages\imageio\core\functions.py", line 182, in get_reader
    "Could not find a format to read the specified file in %s mode" % modename
ValueError: Could not find a format to read the specified file in single-image mode

How can I get past this error?
Thanks in advance

Hi, this is caused by the wrong url path. Please make sure that the file path only contains these two images (without the Landmarks file in the same folder).
If you just want to test with the provided test images in './TestData/RealVgg/Imgs', you can directly run step 3 without steps 1 and 2.

It worked after I changed the landmarks file location to ./TestData/RealVgg/Landmarks/ for save path
