The decoder returned a frame that is past the expected one

[runitao]

Version

1.41.0

Describe the bug.

I use fn.readers.video to decode videos, the minimum reproducible example will report exception（see relevant log output).

I have test 4 cases, just the case 1 reports exception, others are well.

python dali_issue.py filelist_1.txt   # case 1
python dali_issue.py filelist_2.txt   # case 2, just reorder the video files
python dali_issue.py filelist_3.txt   # case 3, only 349047839_5.mp4
python dali_issue.py filelist_4.txt   # case 4, only 349064170_5.mp4

The video files in all cases are 349064170_5.mp4 and/or 349047839_5.mp4

PS. I test with weekly build too, the problem is still here.
