Error starting FFmpeg.

[bsowens]

I just setup the firmware on my Yi Dome (not 1080p, international version). Here is the config for it:

camera:
  - platform: yi
    name: Camera
    host: 'xx.x.x.xxx'
    password: my_password

However I keep getting these two Errors:

Error starting FFmpeg.

and

FFmpeg fails program arguments must be a bytes or text string, not bool

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/srv/homeassistant/lib/python3.5/site-packages/haffmpeg/core.py", line 114, in open
    stderr=stderr
  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/asyncio/subprocess.py", line 212, in create_subprocess_exec
    stderr=stderr, **kwds)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/asyncio/base_events.py", line 1180, in subprocess_exec
    % type(arg).__name__)
TypeError: program arguments must be a bytes or text string, not bool

There are several forum posts online and I have spent hours and hours trying to debug this. Any adivce? I'm happy to provide more info if needed.
