odd question, what do you get if you run these before the line its failing on?

print deadlinePlugin.GetPluginInfoEntry( "Videofile" ) 
print os.path.exists(deadlinePlugin.GetPluginInfoEntry( "Videofile" ) )
print RepositoryUtils.CheckPathMapping( deadlinePlugin.GetPluginInfoEntry( "Videofile" ) )
print os.path.exists(RepositoryUtils.CheckPathMapping( deadlinePlugin.GetPluginInfoEntry( "Videofile" ) ))

also maybe this will help:

id also double check the path mappings in the repo settings to make sure the paths do not contain the extra characters.
