[MNT]: FFMpegWriter does not check if out path exists when initialized.  #25233

Description

Summary

FFMpegWriter does not ensure the outputpath exists when initialized (here). This leads to a broken pipe error with no mention of a non-existent path which can be misleading to the user.

Proposed fix

When setup is called, check the output path exists and if not, throw an error to inform the user.
