.md5 files created on non-Unix systems may use line endings other than LF . Windows uses CRLF (\x0D\x0A), and maybe some Mac utility still uses CR (\x0D).
The error message is cryptic in a Linux terminal with CRLF files, because it overwrites the file name, since it just prints out the CR character:
$ md5sum -w -c Some_File_From_Windows.md5 : No such file or directoryWindows.mxf : FAILED open or readndows.mxf md5sum: WARNING: 1 listed file could not be read
