2.0.0 QA: Scanning for capture device can freeze capture card in OBS #169

@Toufool

Description

@Toufool

repro:

  • open OBS
  • add your capture card to a scene
  • open AutoSplit
  • File -> Settings
  • After capture devices are scanned, capture card is frozen in OBS (deactive -> active in OBS fixes this)
  • this happened to both my GV USB2 and my Avermedia Live Gamer HD 2 capture cards

Proposed solution to avoid this issue as often as possible if the freezing cant be fixed:

  • only scan for capture devices wheen "Video Capture Device" is selected as the capture method
  • if "Video Capture Device" is NOT set as the capture method, set "Capture device" dropdown to Select "Video Capture Device" as Capture Method"
