    Description

      Consider you are passing an unplayable URL like 'https://youtu.be/f8lc-cRdDKE" to media player. when FFmpeg is trying to figure out is the source valid or not, GUI become freeze. it can take 10 seconds for example.
      this can happen also when user have a bad internet connection.
      can this part execute in a different thread?
      Thanks
