Public bug reported:

Every time I start up OpenShot it seems to do a non-trivial scan of my
filesystem.  I notice it because I have NTFS shares from another server
mounted on my desktop, and the first time I start OpenShot it causes the
disks on the server (in the same room) to spin-up.  As this is a costly
operation (scanning network servers with spun-down drives takes a few
seconds!), I was wondering if it would be possible to not do such an
invasive scan every time the application starts.
