Video hashs on vastly different videos yield is_similar() True about videohash HOT 1 OPEN

I'm having this problem too, and i've spend all day today debugging why does this happen.

So far i've discovered this:

the "is_similar" function in videohash.py do this check:

if self - other <= ceil((self.similar_percentage / 100) * self.bits_in_hash)

BUT videohash.py also defines these two things:
self.bits_in_hash = 64
self.similar_percentage = 15

so the previous check ALWAYS boils down to:
if self - other <= ceil((15 / 100) * 64)
which is ALWAYS = 10

basically changing the "is_similar" function from
if self - other <= ceil((self.similar_percentage / 100) * self.bits_in_hash)
to
if self - other <= 10
returns the same results, and i've tested this with a semple of 1000 videos.
The results are identical both with the default check and when using "if self - other <= 10"

Correct me if i'm wrong, i'm quite noob-ish here and just doing some observations... infact i'm not even sure mathematically speaking what this check is doing exactly.

ALSO i think this can be related somewhat to the issue #94 "Hash Collision" if that might help...
