Enumerating available audio and video capture devices block main thread

Version 2.1.5 Rincewind (Intel 64bit) MacOSX 10.9.4

You're likely already aware of the issue:

  1. open files from a removal drive
  2. close vlc
  3. remove the drive
  4. reopen vlc and do File > Open

VLC hangs for a long time.

How about checking that the path exists before trying to load it, and instead falling back to some default (always accessible) dir instead?
