Hi,

I was trying to make the [VideoMAE](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/en/model_doc/videomae) model work with a batch size \> 1 but I see this is not possible. Is this the expected behaviour?

I believe there is a [similar issue](https://discuss.huggingface.co/t/videomae-pretrain-batch-masking/22176) with no answer.

Thank you.
