Parallel SourceAnalyzer - QLaHPD - 28.05.2023

Would it be possible to parallelize the source analyzer (file input), it takes a very large amount of time to load files when there are thousands of them. I believe that this function uses ffmpeg to extract information from the files, and I believe that it does not need much processing or memory, so would it be possible to create an option with a value (n threads) to parallelize the reading of files? I think a limit of (1 to 255) would be enough.

I don't think there is a fast way to implement this easily, it would require quite a bit of rewriting&co.
-> not planned atm.
