> Initializing DASH streams is currently slow, because each individual stream is opened and probed sequentially. With DASH streams often having somewhere between 10-20 streams, this can easily take up to half a minute. This patch adds an "init-threads" option, specifying the max number of threads to use. Multiple worker threads are spun up to massively bring down init times.

Should add #if HAVE_THREADS to check if the pthread supported.
